JAIPUR: Accepting Rajasthan government's invitating for joining the talks, Gujjar leader Kirori Singh Bainsla arrived here on Monday and chaired a meeting of his outfit's representatives who have been holding parleys with the state authorities in a bid to end the 25-day-old stir.

Shortly after arrival, he met the 22-member team of his outfit, Gurjar Arakshan Sangharsh Samiti, at Teej Hotel here and held consultations ahead of the parleys with the Rajasthan government delegation.

Welcoming the proposals put forward by government to resolve the Gujjar agitation, Bainsla, the top leader of Gurjar Arakshan Sangharsh Samiti, had said last night that he would go to Jaipur to hold further talks.

"I'm happy. I will go to Jaipur and a result will come out. We are prima facie happy with the proposals of the Rajasthan government", Bainsla had told reporters in Karwadi.

The state government's proposals were contained in a letter which was brought to Bainsla by a team of Gujjar leaders from Jaipur to Karwadi by a state government helicopter.
