She said that there should have been some confidence building measures by the Centre before calling for an all-party meeting, however, that did not happen. ” But we will not do any such things at this time which will subvert the dialogue process, which has been started now, so we will be attending the meeting and we hope we will put forth our view openly there. We will listen to them as well,” she said. (KNS)
