Lt General A.K. Bhatt, Commander of the Srinagar headquartered 15 Corps, stated: "The Ramadan ceasefire has brought in some modicum of peace into the lives of the common Kashmiris who have appreciated the gesture.
The ushering of ceasefire has not offered a hope for lasting peace in the Kashmir valley among masses and sane voices but also have become a reason to strengthen the economy of the state via huge rush of tourists. The stakeholders are happy.
Pertinently, last year on the occasion of holy night Shab e Qadar a senior Police officer was allegedly lynched to death by a mob at Nowhatta Old City Srinagar.
According to majority of Islamic scholars, Lailatul Qadr falls on night of Ramzan-ul-Mubarak 27 but it is better to search it in odd nights of Ramzan-ul-Mubarak.
