Before the J&K Administration issued the orders on sealing of FAT-run schools came, it was found that all these schools were existing on 'illegally-acquired government and community land.'

Fraudulent and illegal activities were found after an extensive probe into the functioning of these schools and the authorities decided to issue orders on the 'cessation of academic activities' in FAT-run schools.
