NEW DELHI, July 19 � A crucial round of talks between NSCN-IM and Centre�s interlocutor RS Pandey will be held soon to carry forward the Naga peace process.

�We have held a few rounds of informal talks with the NSCN-IM leadership. Formal talks will begin in the next few days,� Pandey told PTI.

However, no date has been fixed for the proposed dialogue.

Top leaders of the rebel group, including general secretary Thuingaleng Muivah, are currently in the capital to participate in the meeting.

Muivah has come here after wrapping up his nearly one- and-a-half-month-long peace mission across Nagaland.

Undertaking the peace mission that began in first week of June, the Naga leader visited all the districts of Nagaland except Mon and called for reconciliation and understanding among the Nagas basing on the principle of �forget and forgive� to have a unified voice to be presented before the Government of India.

So far over 60 rounds of peace talks were held between the two sides during the course of 13-year-long peace process initiated in August 1997.

Initially, Muivah embarked on a journey to his native village in Manipur�s Ukhrul district on May 5, but deferred his plan following stiff opposition from the Ibobi Singh government which saw his visit as a �threat to communal harmony� in the State. � PTI
