Can India find the Maoist Naxals without taking care of the poorest of the poor in remote tribal areas?
Indian Government has given the responsibility to fight the Naxals to the security forces. The answer may lie in socio-economic injustice that haunts the subcontinent since the British Raj.
If you ever go to the deepest part of Indian rural tribal areas, you will be surprised. In the country that is planning to visit Moon and Mars in the next several years, people live without clean drinking water, sanitation, hospitals, electricity, and basic infrastructure available to any one in the rest of the world other than deep jungle animals.
The poverty, the oppression, and inequality is so sever that people are desperate to live a life like human beings.
Indian Maoists take advantage of the genuine grudges of these people to fight the Government of India.
Bringing to the fore the difference of perception within the Congress over tackling the Maoist problem, Congress MP Mani Shankar Aiyar on Thursday said the unified command of armed forces might not be the solution.
Asked his views on the unified command, Aiyar told media reporters that a unified command of participatory development of the poor tribal regions could be the answer to the problem. He was here after he returned from Bangladesh with a delegation that explored the possibility of business development between the two countries.
Can Indian really win the war against the Naxals without taking care of its poorest?
