Kolkata, July 12 (IANS) The Communist Party of India (CPI) Monday urged the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government to open a dialogue with the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) as also secessionist groups like the United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA).
CPI general secretary A.B. Bardhan told media persons here that the Maoists have been pushed into a corner in areas like West Bengal’s West Midnapore district.
‘I agree with this,’ he replied when asked whether there was need for initiating a dialogue process with the Left wing extremists.
‘Let there be a dialogue with the ULFA also. Else how can you end insurgency?’ he asked.
