conglomerate and is understood to have discussed the latest

Emerging from the 45-minute meeting, Vohra said the

"The Hurriyat Conference general council has reportedly
said it is ready for talks. The position will become clear
after the Friday prayers today when the organisation will
make a public statement regarding the talks," he said.
Pointing out that the government had made the offer for
talks, he said the Hurriyat was at present evolving a
consensus and needed more time to build it.
When referred to Hurriyat General Council decision, he said, "We have always wanted talks. There were some difficulties and these have now got cleared."
Asked when talks were expected to take place, Vohra said it could be after the end of holy Ramzan month. "The meeting is to take place. But we have to see the convenience of the Hurriyat leaders and that of the deputy Prime Minister and see how many of the Hurriyat leaders will participate in talks," he said.
