(v) establishing sanctuaries and training camps in neighbouring countries;

(vi) embarking upon restructuring of its organizational network at the grass root level by launching a quite but systematic drive for recruitment of fresh cadres while continuing its violent and insurgent activities;

And Whereas, the Central Government is also of the opinion that the activities of ULFA are, for the reasons mentioned above, detrimental to the sovereignty and integrity of India and that it is an unlawful association;

The Central Government, having regard to the activities of ULFA mentioned above and to meet the sustained and ever increasing violence committed by ULFA in the recent past against the police, the armed forces and the civilians, is also of the opinion that circumstances exist which renders it necessary to declare ULFA to be an unlawful association with immediate effect and accordingly, in exercise of the powers conferred by the proviso to sub-section (3) of section 3 of the said Act, the Central Government hereby directs that this notification shall, subject to any order that may be made under section 4 of the said Act, have effect from the date of its publication in the Official Gazette.
