The Concerned Citizens Group has issued a statement appealing for a complete ceasefire in Jammu and Kashmir during the holy month of Ramzan. The entire statement may be read here:
The Concerned Citizens’ Group strongly endorses the joint demand of the political parties of Jammu and Kashmir for a ceasefire during the
sacred month of Ramazan. The security forces must observe the ceasefire strictly and should fire only when fired upon. The Government
of India must initiate a purposeful dialogue in the meanwhile with all stakeholders in a time-bound manner.
We also appeal to all concerned in J&K to abjure violence during Ramazan as well as the ensuing Amarnath Yatra and respond positively
to the initiative of the government if it takes such an initiative.
