Pune, Sept 24 (IBNS) The striking FTII students have expressed their willingness for talks to resolve the stalemate over chairmanship of Gajendra Chauhan, media report said.

The FTII Students' Association (FSA), which is spearheading the agitation, said it has replied to the latest letter from the Information and Broadcasting (I&B) Ministry inviting it for a dialogue to break the impasse.

Replying the  ministry's letter of September 22, the student body has expressed willingness for a dialogue. However, the government, as it appeared in the letter laid down the pre-condition of ending the strike before discussions.

The strike at the premier institute entered its 104th day over the demand for Chauhan's removal.

The students' demand has received support from a section of the faculty members and celebrity actors.
