The Union Home Ministry has designated twenty-three Pakistan-based individuals as terrorists under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.
聯邦內政部根據《非法活動（防止）法》，將 23 名居住在巴基斯坦的人士列為恐怖分子。
Introduction
The Indian government has expanded its list of designated terrorists to include twenty-three individuals associated with militant organizations in Pakistan.
印度政府擴大了恐怖分子名單，將 23 名與巴基斯坦激進組織相關的人士納入其中。
Main Body
The current administrative action is predicated upon the 2019 amendment to the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), which transitioned the legal framework from the exclusive designation of entities to the inclusion of specific individuals. This legislative shift facilitates the National Investigation Agency's capacity to execute asset seizures and implement embargoes on financial and material resources. Consequently, the total census of designated individuals has reached eighty, incorporating previously listed figures such as Hafiz Saeed, Maulana Masood Azhar, and Gurpatwant Singh Pannun.
目前的行政行動是基於 2019 年對《非法活動（防止）法》（UAPA）的修訂，將法律框架從僅能指定實體轉變為可納入特定個人。此次立法轉變促進了國家調查局（NIA）執行資產沒收並對財政與物資資源實施禁運的能力。因此，被指定人士的總數已達到 80 人，其中包括先前列入名單的人物，如 Hafiz Saeed、Maulana Masood Azhar 及 Gurpatwant Singh Pannun。
Among the newly designated persons are high-ranking associates of Hafiz Saeed, specifically Abdul Rauf, Hafiz Khalid Waleed, and Rana Iftikhar, the latter of whom is cited for the coordination of militant activities and youth mobilization. Furthermore, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) identified several senior functionaries of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). Masood Ilyas Kashmiri and Mohammad Mussadiq, both linked to the April 2022 Sunjwan incident, are alleged to have managed infiltration, training, and the drone-based procurement of armaments. The latter is further implicated in the oversight of cyber operatives utilizing social media for recruitment. Additionally, Mufti Muhammad Asghar Khan is identified as a primary architect of the 2016 Nagrota army camp assault.
在新被指定的人士中，包括 Hafiz Saeed 的高層同夥，特別是 Abdul Rauf、Hafiz Khalid Waleed 以及 Rana Iftikhar，後者被指負責協調激進活動與青年動員。此外，內政部（MHA）識別了數名「穆罕默德之軍」（JeM）的高級幹部。Masood Ilyas Kashmiri 與 Mohammad Mussadiq 均與 2022 年 4 月的 Sunjwan 事件有關，被指管理滲透、培訓及利用無人機採購軍備。後者更被指監督利用社交媒體進行招募的網路特工。此外，Mufti Muhammad Asghar Khan 被認定為 2016 年 Nagrota 陸軍營襲擊案的主要策劃者。
Conclusion
The designation of these twenty-three individuals increases the total number of UAPA-listed terrorists to eighty, targeting the operational infrastructure of JeM and LeT.
將這 23 名人士列名，使 UAPA 名單上的恐怖分子總數增加至 80 人，旨在打擊 JeM 與 LeT 的運作基礎設施。
Vocabulary Learning
The Architecture of Nominalization and Formal Precision
To migrate from B2 (communicative competence) to C2 (conceptual mastery), a student must move beyond verbs of action toward nouns of state. The provided text is a masterclass in Nominalization—the process of turning verbs or adjectives into nouns to achieve a detached, authoritative, and highly precise academic register.
◈ The 'Erosion' of the Subject
Observe the phrase: "The current administrative action is predicated upon..."
At a B2 level, a writer might say: "The government is acting this way because of the 2019 amendment."
C2 Analysis: Notice how the action (acting) becomes a noun (administrative action). This shifts the focus from the actor (the government) to the mechanism (the action). This is the hallmark of legal and diplomatic English; it removes subjectivity and emphasizes systemic legality.
◈ Lexical Precision: The 'High-Value' Verb
C2 mastery requires replacing generic verbs with precise, Latinate alternatives. In this text, we see:
- Predicated upon replaces based on.
- Facilitates replaces helps.
- Incorporating replaces including.
◈ Syntactic Compression
Look at the phrase: "...the drone-based procurement of armaments."
If we 'unpack' this into B2 English, it becomes: "They used drones to get weapons."
The C2 Transformation:
- Adjective Synthesis: "Drone-based" transforms a tool into a qualifier.
- Abstract Noun: "Procurement" replaces the verb "to get," elevating the act to a formal process.
- Specialized Terminology: "Armaments" replaces "weapons," specifying a military context.
Theoretical Takeaway: C2 English is not about 'big words'; it is about density. By transforming processes into nouns (Nominalization), you can pack more information into a single sentence without losing grammatical cohesion. This allows the writer to describe complex legal frameworks (like the UAPA) with surgical objectivity.
