SHILLONG: The breakaway faction of the Achik National Volunteer Council (ANVC) has once again expressed its desire to come for negotiation with the government over its long pending demand for a separate Garoland.
In a letter submitted to the Chief Minister Dr Mukul Sangma here recently, the ANVC (B) chairman Rimpu Napak Marak sought a positive response from the State Government in this regard.
“The group has avoided bloodshed
and other illegal activities, thus cooperating with the request put forward by the government hoping for a negotiation. But the delay seems to be just another policy of disorienting the movement,” the letter stated.
The outfit hinted that the government’s policy of delaying the solution to the ‘Garoland issue’ gave rise to various ‘breakaway groups’ like ANLF, GNLA and others. “The delay is creating doubts on the intention of the Government,” the letter added.
