State Division Makes Maoists to Intensify?

The Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy expressed his fears that Maoists’ activity will be on rise if the State is divided in to two.   This is what he said in the Core Committee meeting held on Friday at the residence of the Prime Minister.  

It has come out that Kiran Kumar Reddy mainly talked about the Naxalites who turned the Telangana region as their fortress to carry on their anti social activities.  He said that they were controlled by the Government with great difficulty for the last so many years.  He is afraid that their activities will rise again once the State is bifurcated.   

He said that the key positions and leadership in the Maoists’ organizations are held by the people that belong to Telangana region.  He gave the figures regarding the Maoists’ activity in the State like this-

As many as 16400 incidents of took place during the period from 1968 to 2013 in which Maoists made havoc in the State.  Out of the 3062 people killed in those incidents, political leaders are 515 and police personnel are 599.  Regionalwise, the problems erupted in the districts of Warangal and Karimnagar with a record of as high as 3500 and 1600 in the district of Nizamabad.

Even the number of deaths are also high in Warangal with 597, Karimnagar 598, Nizamabad 292, Adilabad 267, Khammam 225 and least in Visakhapatnam with 117 deaths.  

Kiran Kumar Reddy emphasized the need of the united State of Andhra Pradesh as the cost and effort that was invested over the period of 25 years in eradicating the Maoists from many places will come back to square one.  Still warlike incidents are taking place, as Kiran Kumar Reddy reported, in the districts of Khammam and Warangal between Maoists and Police which will increase to the intensity that was witnessed earlier.
