Senior leaders of LeT and the United Jehad Council, a conglomerate of terrorist groups active in Jammu and Kashmir, are reassessing their policy in the aftermath of the November 26 terror strikes, the News daily said.
The top militant leaders are "pondering a new, friendly policy on Kashmir" because of mounting global pressure on Pakistan after the Mumbai attacks and subsequent action against jehadi groups in the country, a 'knowledgeable' source was quoted as saying in the report.
The newspaper said it was unable to reach UJC chairman Syed Salahuddin for his comments. Salahuddin's spokesman Ehsan Elahi said the groups wanted the Kashmir issue to be "settled amicably" in the emerging situation.
"It is our desire that this problem is resolved through dialogue... Neither is militancy an easy affair nor are we happy with it," Elahi said.
"We want peace but it does not mean that we are renouncing our stance or showing a weakness. If there is such an impression in any quarter, it is completely wrong." Elahi complained that the current Pakistani government, unlike past administrations, was "not supporting them".
Since the Pakistan People's Party-led government is not backing the groups diplomatically and morally, they had "obvious grumbles" but understood the "prevailing volatile situation", he said.

Burning charcoals are better to be kept outside. If not they will burn the entire house. We fought the war with them not to give them a welcome back. Let them happily retire and live the rest of their life in the country of their choice Paki. We do not need their favours. There are new blood which may be better to be nurtured then this spend force. No place for the barbarians here who caused so much misery to all.
If they are wanting to be friendly then let the Paki Trecherous Heathen (PTH) HAND OVER the 20 Terrorists that India has asked for . This would be a good start
Impossible.
Due to pressure on them they wag their tails now and later they bite so better put them in kennels
This is an eye wash. No one will believe these rogues. They might be regrouping or arming for a bigger attack. India must seal the border and finish any militants trying to cross over. ISI is training and will continue to train these poor, undeducted youth to fight a proxy war and keep India engaged in the battle. We must modernize our forces with state of art weapons and communications. The soldiers in the deadly cold places like Leh must be taken care of by providing good leave cycle to visit their families. The news is not so good at present with high suisidal rates. India at times must be very agressive with the militants and neighbouring countries. China is a bigger culprit than Pak. We must change our image as soft belly target. With potbelly politicians with greed for power and money it seems distant dream
Is is the pressure which is speaking and not a natural change of attitude,,,Be aware,
HA..Kashmir policy.....Did someone say dacoits have morality....
