Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar has said that he tried to open peace talks with the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria but the deadliest terrorist organisation rejected the offer by sending him a photograph of a beheaded body of a man, India Today reported. 

"I tried to initiate peace talks with the ISIS recently but they sent me a photograph of a beheaded body of a man. Thus, my effort for a peace dialogue with the ISIS ended," Sri Sri Ravi Shankar said.

After ISIS's response, Sri Sri changed his mind and said that the notorious terrorist outfit could only be dealt with militarily and there was no scope of a peaceful dialogue.

Earlier this week, Sri Sri urged the Manipur Chief Minister O Ibobi Singh to ask the insurgents to come to the negotiating table.
