Responding to news reports that the Maoists had killed one of the four policemen they abducted on Sunday, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said his government is ready for talks with the Leftwing rebels. “We have been ready for talks,” Nitish Kumar said on the sidelines of a function in the state capital. He also said the eight Maoists lodged in different jails in Bihar, whose release is being demanded by the Maoists, are being taken care of well, and he expected the rebels to mete the same treatment to the abducted policemen.
