Paresh Baruah

A tripartite peace deal between the Centre, the Assam government, and the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) has been signed in Delhi, bringing the curtains down on one of the biggest insurgent groups in the northeast region.

Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has invited Paresh Baruah -- the chief of banned group ULFA(I) (United Liberation Front of Asom-Independent) to come and stay in Assam for one week and see the change.

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Sunday said that the possibility of bringing the Paresh Baruah-led ULFA (Independent) for peace talks will not be possible till the time the leader of the banned outfit keeps demanding sovereignty.

After Himanta Biswa Sarma was sworn in as the Chief Minister of Assam, he appealed to ULFA-I chief Paresh Baruah to join the peace process by shunning violence. ULFA-I then declared a unilateral ceasefire due to rising cases of Covid-19.
