Guwahati: There would be no fresh peace talks with any militant groups in Assam but those willing to come forward for parleys could join the talks already under progress with the ULFA and NDFB, Assam Director General of Police Khagen Sarma said on Wednesday.
"Talks are on with the ULFA and NDFB. Those wanting to come for discussions can join the ongoing talks. But there will be no fresh talks with anybody," Sarma said on the sidelines of a meeting here.
Responding to queries on whereabouts of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) faction's leader Ingti Kathar Songbijit, the top cop said, "He is outside India and has now become the advisor of the outfit."
G Bidai alias Bishnu Goyari, Vice-President of the outfit, was stated to have carried out the plan for the attacks on December 23 last which killed nearly 100 Adivasis.
"He is criss-crossing between India and Bhutan," the DGP said.
On a question of regrouping by the cadres of the extremist outfit, he said, "New councils may be formed and new posts may be given out to its cadres. We will keep a watch on how things progress and arrest them."
The security forces are keeping a vigil on the anti-national elements and "Operations against the NDFB(S) is on and would continue", Sarma said.
"The security forces have eliminated several of the NDFB(S) top leaders, including platoon commanders, in encounters and arrested over 300 of its cadres," the DGP added.
