Rajkhowa writes formally to Gogoi for peace talks

By The Assam Tribune

Guwahati, Jan 17 (PTI): Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi has received a formal letter from ULFA chairman Arabinda Rajkhowa expressing his outfit's willingness to hold peace talks with the government.

Stating that the outfit's central executive council would be meeting soon, the Chief Minister said, "I have received a letter from Rajkhowa about ULFA's willingness to sit for the talks ...

"The talks process is moving in the right direction. I can't say exactly on which date the talks will be held as it will be decided only after the ULFA executive council meets and decides. When the talks will be held is now up to them," Gogoi said last evening on the sidelines of a meeting here. "The decisions taken at the meeting will be communicated to the government for the beginning of the peace talks," he said.
