Naga talks to resume in March

NEW DELHI, FEB 16 (AGENCIES):  The government has decided to resume Naga peace talks with visiting leaders of the NSCN (IM) Isak Chishi Swu and Thuingaleng Muivah in the first week of the coming month.  “The government was waiting for the Manipur Assembly elections to be over before resuming talks with the Naga leaders. Now since the results of the elections would be announced on February 27, we have decided to continue the talks in the first week of March,” a government source said.  At present both the Naga leaders are having their sojourn in Nagaland and as the talks had not been possible before the Manipur elections, the government, through its interlocutor M Padmanabhaia, continued to be in touch with them, the source said.
