The NDFB expressed the hope that the memorandum would push forward the peace process and called upon all sections of people to extend their cooperation to ensure a permanent solution to the problems.
It may be mentioned that the peace talks with the NDFB were delayed because of the failure of the outfit to submit its charter of demands.Meanwhile, MHA sources said that the memorandum was handed over by the NDFB in a meeting chaired by the Special Secretary, Internal Security. MHA sources, however, were tight lipped about the contents of the memorandum.
