Guwahati, June 9 (IBNS): Union minister of state for home Kiren Rijiju on Friday said that the peace agreement with the pro-talk faction group of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) will be signed shortly.

Rijiju said that the peace agreement with ULFA led by Arobinda Rajkhowa has almost finalized.

While attending in the Modi Fest (Making of Developed India Festival) held at Rongia in Assam’s Kamrup district, the Union MOS home said that, several issues have been discussed during the ongoing peace talk with ULFA and the organization has placed their demands in the talks table.

“Apart from ULFA, Centre will sign peace agreement with the two faction groups of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) within short time,” Rijiju said.

Former Director of Intelligence Bureau (IB) Dineshwar Sharma, who was recently appointed interlocutor by the Union home ministry, had chaired two rounds meeting with ULFA and NDFB’s two factions in Guwahati on June 7-8.
