Srinagar, Apr 8 : Jammu and Kashmir Congress president Tariq Hameed Karra on Wednesday welcomed the ceasefire between Iran and the United States, terming it a “prudent and timely step” toward global stability.
Drawing a historical parallel, Congress chief J&K stated that the 40-day confrontation mirrored the duration of the Battle of Khaybar — a symbol of “endurance, strategic patience, and clarity of purpose.”
“The message from these 40 days is unmistakable: restraint, backed by resolve, ultimately shapes the pathway to peace,” the JKPCC chief told news agency Kashmir News Service (KNS).
JKPC chief asserted that sustainable peace cannot emerge from prolonged escalation but from “balanced engagement that respects sovereignty, acknowledges legitimate concerns, and preserves dignity.” He urged the international community to convert the pause into a “credible and structured peace process” where dialogue replaces distrust.
