Deendar Anjuman is a Sufi Islamic fundamentalist Sect founded in Hyderabad, India.
[1][2] The main motive of this sect was to convert local Hindu Lingayats to Islam, as in to counter the Arya Samaji Suddhi movement of Northern India.
The group's founder Siddique is reported to have hated the British colonial government, which in 1934 jailed Siddiqui and 18 of his followers for indulging in inflammatory speeches and writings.
The prime accused in the case, Zia-ul-Hassan was the son of Syed Siddique Hussain, the founder of Deendar Anjuman.
The conspiracy was hatched in October 1999 in Hyderabad, during the death anniversary of its founder Hajrath Moulana Siddiqui.
