NEW DELHI, OCT 25 (PTI)

On the eve of scheduled peace talks with the Government, the ULFA-selected Peoples' Consultative Group (PCG) today said the banned outfit wants a "dignified" solution to Assam's three-decade-old insurgency problem.

"We want peace in Assam. The ULFA wants a dignified solution to the 27-year old conflict," PCG member and Gauhati High Court advocate Arup Borbora told reporters here after a close-door meeting of the group here to finalise their strategy for tomorrow's meeting with National Security Advisor M K Narayanan which will also be attended by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

"Our job basically is to frame the basic structure for ultimate dialogue between the conflicting parties and resolve the issue amicably. We will also try to remove all hurdles coming in the way of direct talks between them and make it fruitful," he said after the meeting which was held at the residence of Gyanpeeth award winning writer Indira Goswami.

When asked whether the banned outfit would honour decisions which may be taken in the course of discussion, Borbora, son of former Assam Chief Minister Golap Borbora, said cryptically "We are in actual communication." About the agenda of the proposed talks, he said "We will discuss the things as they come. We are not anticipating anything. Definitely the Government of India would like to know our point of view.
