New Delhi: In a significant development, a tripartite peace deal has been signed in Delhi among the Centre, the Assam government, and the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA), marking the resolution of one of the major insurgent groups in the northeastern region.
The peace agreement, which excludes the ULFA (Independent) faction led by Paresh Baruah that remains opposed to talks, aims to address key issues such as illegal immigration, land rights for indigenous communities, and a financial package for the development of Assam.
Home Minister Amit Shah assured that all reasonable demands by ULFA would be met in a time-bound manner, leading to the disbandment of ULFA as an organization. Shah credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi for bringing peace and stability to the northeast.
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, alongside Shah, expressed confidence that the peace deal with ULFA would substantially resolve the insurgency issue in the region.
The Modi government has previously entered into peace agreements with various insurgent groups in the northeast, provided they agreed to disarm. This recent development follows a pattern of ongoing efforts to bring about peace and stability in the region.
