Context

This data was extracted from the following paragraph of the newspaper clippings.

Separately, a media report said SFs in Rajouri district identified two Hizb-ul-Mujahideen 'commanders', Tahir Billa and Zanat Gul, as being involved in the campaign to impose a dress code for female students and teachers in educational institutions. A massive hunt has been launched to eliminate or arrest the two, both of whom were reportedly local cadres and were currently operating in Darhal area in the district. The report also said the 'burqa (veil) drive' was launched by the terrorists to get the Army vacated from the sensitive Darhal Higher Secondary School. Presence of SFs was reportedly hampering terrorists' movement in the area, besides blocking supplies of arms and ration to them. Meanwhile, in view of growing resentment against the 'burqa and anti-education drive', the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) said it had withdrawn the directive. A number of posters, issued by JeM's 'Central Jehad Council' were reportedly seen pasted in Khablan, Darhal and Thanna Mandi areas. The posters said, though the veil found mention in Koranic law, no force should be used by any group to make female students observe the dress code. "The girls are free to take their own decision on burqa. No one will stop them from visiting schools", the posters said. The call for a dress code was initially given by the Al-Badr and HM.
