Introduction
In a shocking revelation, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has uncovered disturbing details about the banned outfit Popular Front of India (PFI) and its alleged agenda of establishing Islamic rule in India by 2047. According to the NIA's charge sheet filed in a special court in Bengaluru, the PFI has formed secret teams called 'Service Teams' or 'Killer Squads' to carry out killings of Hindu leaders.

The NIA's Revelations
The NIA's charge sheet was filed in connection with the killing of BJP's Yuva Morcha district committee member Praveen Nettaru on July 26, 2022, in Bellare village of Sullia Taluk in Karnataka's Dakshina Kannada district. The agency alleges that Nettaru was killed in full public view with lethal weapons to create terror among the people, especially members of a particular community.
According to the charge sheet, the investigations revealed that the PFI, as part of its agenda to create terror, communal hatred, and unrest in society, and further its agenda of establishing Islamic Rule by 2047, formed secret teams called 'Service Teams' or 'Killer Squads' to carry out killings of its 'perceived enemies' and targets. The NIA states that these Service Team members were given arms and attack training, as well as training in surveillance techniques, to identify, list out, and mount surveillance on individuals and leaders belonging to certain communities and groups.
The Alleged Conspiracy and Execution
The charge sheet further mentions that, in furtherance of a conspiracy involving PFI members and leaders, the head of the district Service Team, Mustafa Paichar, was instructed to recce, identify, and target a prominent member of a particular community. Four individuals were identified, and among them, Praveen Nettaru, a BJP Yuva Morcha member, was assaulted and killed in full public view to create terror.
The PFI's Larger Agenda
According to the NIA, the revelations point to the PFI's larger agenda of converting India into an Islamic nation by 2047. The agency cites a PFI document titled "2047 Vision Document," which outlines the organization's plans to establish an Islamic government in India by the year 2047.
"We dream of a 2047 where political power has returned to the Muslim community from whom it was unjustly taken away by the British Raj," the document states. It further emphasizes that the Muslim community has always been a minority and does not need to be the majority to gain power. "If we look into the history of Islam, Muslims were always in the minority, and for victory, we do not need to have a majority. Popular Front of India (PFI) is confident that even if 10% of the total Muslim population rallies behind it, PFI would subjugate the cowardly majority community to their knees and bring back the glory of Islam in India."
The document explicitly outlines PFI's goal of establishing an Islamic government. It urges its cadres and Muslim youths to stay committed to their mission of enforcing the law of Allah and acting as messengers on Earth. "PFI cadres and Muslim youths should be repeatedly told that they all are working for Deen. Allah created the world/Kayanaat, and Muslims were made for two reasons: first, to establish the law of Allah, and second, Muslims are Daai on Earth. This should always be kept in mind that the rule of Islam has to be established," the document underscores.
Alarmingly, the document advises Muslims to maintain detailed records of Hindu leaders for eventual assassination. "It is imperative to collect and keep ready detailed information about the personal details of Hindu/RSS leaders and locations of their offices before the stage of the final showdown comes. The information wings at various levels should keenly follow up and update their database. Tracking their activities would also help us respond against their atrocities. Keeping in view the importance of the information wing in the roadmap of our final goal, the working of the wing at all levels needs to be strengthened and sharpened."
The document also makes it clear that the PFI plans to carry out genocide against Hindus when the time is right. The final stage of their plan includes stockpiling weapons and training armed cadres to establish an Islamic constitution and eliminate all opposition. "When we have enough trained cadres and stockpiled arms, we would declare a new Constitution based on Islamic principles. External forces would also come to help at this stage. There would be systematic and widespread elimination of our opponents and the return of Islamic glory," the document states. In preparation for a full-scale conflict with the Indian state, the PFI also mentions seeking support from "friendly Islamic nations" such as Turkey. The document claims that the PFI has developed close ties with Turkey and aims to establish connections with other Islamic countries as well.
The PFI has a history of targeting non-Muslim leaders, particularly Hindus. Notable victims include RSS leader Rudresh, Ramalingam, Nandu, Sanjit, Bibin, Sharath, Abhimanyu, Sasi Kumar, and Praveen Pujari, all of whom have been killed by PFI’s hit squads. This revelation of the PFI’s 2047 vision is a stark reminder of the organization's extremist agenda and highlights the urgent need for vigilance and countermeasures to safeguard India's secular and democratic fabric.
Role of Reporters and Dawah Squads
The Popular Front of India (PFI) employs reporters specifically tasked with gathering intelligence on non-Muslim leaders. These reporters meticulously tracked the movements and whereabouts of their targets, relaying this critical information to hit squads. Their duties extended to monitoring political leaders, scrutinizing their public statements, social media activities, and even details about their family members. According to sources, the primary role of these PFI reporters is to conduct thorough reconnaissance on Hindu leaders. The killing of Praveen Nettaru in Karnataka highlighted the detailed level of information that PFI's hit squads possessed. They knew his residence, the places he frequented, and his exact locations, including information about his family members—all gathered by PFI reporters.
An official described the PFI's operation as a well-oiled machine. Reporters collected data, which was then passed on to the Dawah or hit squads. These squads presented the information to PFI's Islamic or Dawah courts. Once the courts sanctioned an action, the Dawah squads were activated to execute the killings of Hindu leaders. Praveen Nettaru was targeted and killed because of his views on the halal issue. What started in Kerala gradually spread to Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and parts of the northeast. The murders of Kanhaiya Lal and Umesh Kolhe were also carried out by such hit squads, acting on directives from the Islamic courts.
Conclusion
The revelations made by the NIA regarding the PFI's alleged radical agenda and the formation of 'Killer Squads' are deeply concerning and paint a chilling picture of the organization's objectives. The charges against the PFI, if proven true, would constitute a grave threat to India's secular fabric and national security. The government's decision to ban the PFI and its affiliates appears well-justified in light of these revelations, which underscore the need for vigilance and swift action against any organization promoting extremism or violence in the name of religion.
