The Lashkar-e-Tayiba on Wednesday declared a four-day unilateral ceasefire in Jammu and Kashmir from the eve of Eid-ul-Fitr.
"The outfit will not attack Indian forces throughout the length and breadth of Jammu and Kashmir as a goodwill gesture in view of Eid-ul-Fitr," LeT spokesman Abu Huzaifa told local news agency CNS in a faxed statement.
Huzaifa said the ceasefire would come into effect a day ahead of Eid and continue till the third day of the Muslim festivities.
He said even political leaders who were on the hit list of the outfit will be spared during the ceasefire.
