Karakat: Hailing the Union Government’s fight against Maoism and red terror, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the day is not far when the Maoist violence will be completely eradicated from the country.
PM Modi inaugurated and laid the foundation of multiple development projects worth over Rs 48,520 crore on May 30 in Karakat. PM Modi asserted that the people of Bihar are the “witnesses” on how those spreading violence and creating unrest are being eliminated by the government.
The Prime Minister highlighted that people promoting Maoists had no faith in Dr BR Ambedkar, but even under such circumstances, CM Nitish Kumar tried his best to do development work in Bihar. PM Modi said that before 2014, 75 districts across India were affected by Maoism, which has now been cut short to 18.

“The people of Bihar are witnesses to how we have eliminated those who spread violence and unrest in the past years. How Maoism was dominant in the Sasaram and nearby districts a few years ago… These people had no faith in Babasaheb Ambedkar. Even in those circumstances, Nitish Kumar tried his best for development here… Before 2014, more than 75 districts were Maoist-affected. Now, only 18 districts are left Naxal-affected. The day is not far when Maoist violence will be completely eradicated”, PM Modi said.
Recently, the Indian forces conducted a major anti-Maoist operation in Chhattisgarh’s Narayanpur, eliminating 27 Maoists, which included top commander Basavaraju.
Basavaraju, who was the general secretary of CPI (Maoist) was active in Maoist activities for the last 40-45 years and was involved in more than 200 Maoist activities.
