Centre ready for talks if insurgents give up violence: Rajnath Singh

The Home Minister was replying to a question on whether the central government was ready for peace negotiations with militants groups in the Northeast.

There are two militant groups in Meghalaya — HNLC and ANVC, both active in Khasi hills and Garo hills regions respectively.

The central government is in talks with a number of insurgent groups, including NSCN-IM, ULFA(pro-talks) besides others.

However, several outfits are against any kind of negotiations and continue to indulge in violence that include NSCN-K, PLA in Manipur, Paresh Baruah-led faction of ULFA among others.
