“After a peace pact with the ULFA pro-talk is signed, serious efforts will be made to start talks with ULFA-Independent,” the Assam CM said.
Meanwhile, reating to the recent acts of the ULFA-I of carrying out grenade explosions near army camps in Assam, CM Sarma said that such acts will only take the state backwards.
