Rasheed said “The centre’s decision has proved that militants enjoy public support and eliminating them makes them more stronger. The unilateral ceasefire is victory of Kashmiris but t the same time it should not be seen as defeat of the other side. New Delhi being the major party to the dispute must move now beyond the ceasefire and offer unconditional talks to United Jihad Counsel andHuriyat leadership and then start tripartite talks between all the three stake holders. It is moral obligation of New Delhi to respect its commitment of declaring unilateral ceasefire.
