Occupied Kashmir's puppet chief minister Mufti Mohammed Sayeed, who escaped assassination attempt last week, appealed on Sunday for peace talks to be given a chance.
The hard-line group Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen has claimed the responsibility of the attack.
"Talks have begun between India and Pakistan and between the centre and the Hurriyat Conference. These chances do not come every time and history will not repeat itself," Sayeed told a public meeting in Pahalgam, Southeast of Srinagar.
"The government wants peace with dignity in the state and not the peace of the graveyard."
Sayeed's appeal came after more than 20 people were injured on Sunday when occupation police in occupied Kashmir used teargas and batons to break up two Muslim processions and detained over 100 people, police and witnesses said.
While appealing for calm on Sunday, Sayeed also promised to check human rights violations in occupied Kashmir by occupation Indian troops.
"It's unfortunate that some excess have taken place despite clear instructions. We will ensure human rights violations are stopped altogether," Sayeed said.
