Day Not Far when Nation Will Be Free of Maoist Terror: PM Modi

Prime Minister Modi highlighted the surrender of over 300 Maoist operatives and said only three districts remain affected by Left Wing Extremism.

  • On Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi told the NDTV World Summit at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi that 303 Maoist operatives surrendered in 75 hours and only three districts remain under Left Wing Extremism.
  • For decades, the conflict left regions without basic services as Maoist terrorists killed thousands and blocked schools and hospitals; eleven years ago, more than 125 districts were affected, now down to 11.
  • In Chhattisgarh, 210 Maoists surrendered and handed over 153 weapons, while thousands of Naxals laid down arms over the last decade and youth now organise the 'Bastar Olympics'.
  • Areas affected by Naxalism will celebrate Diwali for the first time in 60-70 years as former fighters return to the mainstream, and Modi said, `They are now moving forward with faith in the Constitution of India`.
  • Modi framed security gains within an 'unstoppable' economic rise, citing inflation below 2%, growth rate over 7%, Google's $15 billion investment, and trade with G7 nations surging 60%.
