Amit Shah News: The Government of India is now going to take an even tougher stand against Naxalism. To take serious steps on this issue, Union Home Minister Amit Shah has called an important meeting in Delhi on October 7. Chief Ministers of eight states will attend this meeting, including the Chief Ministers of Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Telangana, Odisha, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. This meeting has been called to prepare for a major operation to end terrorism in Naxal-affected states.

Target to eradicate Naxalism by 2026

Home Minister Amit Shah has announced before this meeting that Naxalites will be completely wiped out from the country by the year 2026. In this direction, the Union Home Ministry has prepared a comprehensive strategy in collaboration with the states. Chief Ministers of Naxal-affected states, Home Secretary, IB chief, DG of paramilitary forces, DG of NIA and other officials of the Home Ministry will attend this meeting. The Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh will share the latest information about the Naxal operation in this meeting.

Stop funding of Naxalites

Just as there has been success in stopping terrorist funding in Jammu and Kashmir, similarly a comprehensive plan is being prepared to stop the funding of Naxalites. The government believes that unless the financial assistance of Naxalites is stopped, it will be difficult to completely eliminate them. Therefore, special attention will be given to weakening Naxalite organizations financially.

Big operation in Chhattisgarh

On October 6, security forces carried out a major operation against Naxalites in Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh. In this operation, 31 Naxalites were killed within just 120 minutes. On this success, the Chief Minister of the state Vishnu Deo Sai said that his government has shown commitment to fight Naxalism. This operation is an important step towards eliminating Naxalism by his government.

Important meeting with Amit Shah

Underlining the strictness of the government against Naxalites, the Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh said that in the meeting to be held under the leadership of Amit Shah, further strategy will be discussed in collaboration with Naxal-affected states. This meeting is considered very important to prepare a decisive action plan against Naxalism.

Figures against Naxalism

According to the data released by the Ministry of Home Affairs, so far in the year 2024, 202 Naxalites have been killed, 723 have surrendered and 812 have been arrested. This shows that the BJP government is working seriously towards the elimination of Naxalism and is constantly trying to uproot it. Last year also Amit Shah had held an important meeting for strict action against Naxalism, the effect of which is now visible.

Conclusion

The government's tough stand against Naxalites and the goal of completely eradicating Naxalism by 2026 raises a new hope in Naxal-affected areas. Stopping the funding of Naxalites and weakening their strength through major operations is part of the government's strategy. This can prove to be a turning point for the states grappling with Naxalism. Now it remains to be seen how effective this strict policy of the government on Naxalism proves to be in the times to come.
