UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi today asserted that the Centre will talk to the Maoists only if they shun the path of violence.Ms Gandhi, addressing an election rally here, said, "The UPA government is ready to discuss any matter with the Maoists.
However, they will have to end the violence. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has already said Development and Law and order will go hand-in-hand," she added.
Peace was necessary for achieving a balanced growth and neither the politics of violence nor any atrocities would be tolerated, she averred.
Foolproof security arrangements were made for Ms Gandhi's visit to this Maoists-infested area.
