The Malegaon blast accused had a contingency plan in place to avoid the legal hassles should a ban on their organisation Abhinav Bharat be imposed. The accused did not want their organisation to suffer the same fate as the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) that has been facing a u00a0ban by the court. Hence, they had planned to get the organisation certified u00a0from the United Nations (UN).u00a0
According to the chargesheet, if the organisation faced a ban, retired u00a0Major Ramesh Upadhyay had planned to challenge it in the high court and seek a stay.
Meanwhile, the others would follow-up on the registration with the UN.
Int'l acclaim
In a conversation with Sudhakar Dwivedi alias Dayanand Pandey, Upadhyay said that if the organisation was banned in India for its activities, they would run it in Israel, Singapore and other countries.
Hence, the organisation would not only get national, but also international acclaim. Upadhyay stated that their fight was not just for the Hindus in India, but for Hindus in all parts of the world.
