Following his release from house arrest, terrorist Saeed announced entry into politics and said that he will be contesting the 2018 general elections in Pakistan.
Pakistan banned JuD and FIF and other organisations from collecting donations on Monday, after Trump accused Islamabad of giving nothing to the US but "lies and deceit" and providing "safe haven" to terrorists.
The US has labelled JuD and Falah-i-Insaniat Foundation (FIF) the "terrorist fronts" for Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), a group Saeed founded in 1987 and which Washington and India blame for the 2008 attacks in Mumbai that killed 166 people.
Hafiz Saeed’s remarks comes hours after JuD said that it will serve a legal notice to Defence Minister Khurram Dastgir Khan for "defaming" it.
JuD spokesperson Yahya Mujahid said Pakistani Defence Minister Dastgir is "speaking the language of US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi".
In addition to JuD and FIF, the list also includes LeT itself, the Paasban-i-Ahle- Hadith and Pasban-i-Kashmir.
Pakistan is under tremendous international pressure to clip the wings of Saeed, who is a UN-designated terrorist and is on US Most Wasted Terrorist list for being the mastermind of deadly 26/11 attacks in Mumbai.
Palestinian Ambassador to India Adnan Abu Al Haija confirmed that Walid Abu Ali has been recalled by the administration following India’s objection.
Yesterday, the MEA had said that it has taken cognizance of the reports and photographs showing Palestinian ambassador in Islamabad Walid Abu Ali attending an event organised by the JuD.
According to reports, Palestinian ambassador in Islamabad Walid Abu Ali attended a large rally organised by the Difa-e-Pakistan Council in Rawalpindi, Pakistan this morning.
Saeed has confirmed that his organisation Jammat-ud-Dawah (JuD) would contest the 2018 general elections under the banner of the MML.
Saeed earlier this month had confirmed that his organisation Jammat-ud-Dawah (JuD) would contest the 2018 general elections under the banner of the Milli Muslim League (MML).

General Bajwa’s statement has raised eyebrows as he tried to equate every other Pakistani with the UN-designated terrorist.
