Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai spoke about the ongoing fight against Maoism, saying it’s like a bad disease that needs to be treated from the root. At an event in Sukma, he shared that in the past year, security forces have removed over 230 Maoists during various encounters.
“Maoism is like cancer,” Sai said. “To get rid of it completely, we must eliminate the root causes. The Maoists have been scaring people and taking advantage of them in some areas of Bastar. These areas were like their safe homes. We decided to go directly into their strongholds.”
Maoists caused a lot of violence in Sukma and the Bastar region, making it difficult for the community to grow. Over the past year, the government made important choices to improve Sukma and is making fast progress.
According to the chief minister, they have expanded police camps in areas affected by Maoism, which has helped keep things safer. Now, Maoists are pushed back and are scared. “In their frustration, they are acting cowardly,” he added. He promised that in Sukma, they will work hard to get rid of Maoism completely and honor the bravery of fallen soldiers.
During the event, the chief minister inaugurated and laid the foundation for 137 development projects worth ₹205 crore in Sukma district.
