Government likely to take strict action against urban Naxals
New Delhi: After controlling the infiltration of foreign terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir and the North-Eastern states, now the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is preparing to take strict action against the masked terrorists of the cities and the influential people who give them shelter through legal clampdown.
In states like Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Andhra, the Maoist Naxalite terrorist activities have come down to the minimum in the last few years. Simultaneously, improved coordination between central security forces and state police has led to the deaths, arrests, or surrenders of numerous Naxalites in Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, and Telangana. However, the government must remain vigilant to prevent Naxalites in remote areas from acquiring arms, funding, and cybercriminal resources from Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and abroad. Two months before the announcement of elections, the Maharashtra government introduced the maharasatra.
