Talks between the Centre and the National Socialist Council of Nagalim (Isak-Muivah) are scheduled to resume towards the end of January and for the first time a ministerial team is likely to represent the government.
NSCN (I-M) leader and its emissary, V S Atem, said over phone from Nagaland that during the talks, the outfit will take up with the government its memorandum submitted earlier for a peaceful solution to the Naga problem.
Isak Chishi Swu and T Muivah will represent the Naga outfit; the government side is likely to include ministers of state Oscar Fernandes, Prithviraj Chauhan and S Reghupaty.
Asked about Muivah's trip to Nagaland, Atem said, "It is successful. People are continuously meeting him for an amicable solution."
