It then outlines the government's two-pronged strategy of law and order measures like deploying security forces, and social integration measures like development programs. However, the conclusion is that while violence has decreased, Naxalites remain active, so the steps taken so far have not been enough to end Naxalism in India. Consolidated legal, political and socio-economic reforms are still needed.

2. “ARE THE STEPS TAKEN BY GOVERNMENT TO
COUNTER NAXALISM ENOUGH ? ”
3. • The term Naxalites comes from Naxalbari that is
a small village in West Bengal. In this
village, Communist Party of India (Marxist)
leaders Charu Majumdar and Kanu Sanyal had
tried to develop a revolutionary opposition
against the CPI (M) leadership in the state. On
May 25, 1967, the revolt started in Naxalbari
when some local authorities attacked a tribal
over a land issue. Then, the tribals attacked the
landlords and the violence escalated
4. • Since then, the Naxal insurgents have been influenced
from 76 districts in nine states to 118 Districts in 12
States. On September 21, 2004, the CPI (Maoists)
was formed after the merger of two major naxal outfits
such as the CPI (Marxist-Leninist) People’s War
(PWG) and the Maoist Communists Center of India
(MCCI).
• Now, it has created a ‘Red Corridor’ from Andhra
Pradesh, through eastern Maharashtra, Madhya
Pradesh, eastern Uttar
Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, to West Bengal
and Bihar. The report says that the ‘Red Corridor’
unites the left-extremists of India with their comrades
in Nepal too.
6. STEPS TAKEN BY GOVERNMENT
• The government has constituted an 'Empowered Group of
Ministers' to counter the problem of Naxalism headed by the
Home minister and select chief ministers.

(UAPA), 1967 amended in 2004 has banned the Communist
Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) - People's War and all its
associated formations, and the Maoist Communist Centre
(MCC) and its front organizations.
• The government has also constituted a Task force which will
comprise of Nodal officers from the Naxal affected areas and
officers from the IB, SSB and the CRPF.
• There is also a Coordination Centre that was set up in 1998
headed by the Union home minister with Chief Secretaries and
DGPs of the Naxal affected areas for the coordination of steps
taken to control Naxal activities.
• The government has laid down a clear plan to tackle the left
wing extremism.
7. Government has formulated a two pronged strategy to
solve the problem of Naxalism.
• Law and Order approach
• Social Integration approach
8. Law and Order approach

Scheme in areas affected by Naxal movements. Like
provided Mine Protected Vehicles (MPV).
• Central Para Military Forces have been deployed on a long
term basis by the government to help the state
governments to fight against the Naxals.
• The government, to strengthen the security network in the
states, has set-up the Indian Reserve (IR) battalions.
• Plans have been set in motion for the formation of three to
four specialized Anti-Maoist Centres at critically important
locations at inter-state boundaries which will be equipped
with five helicopters each and would be manned by the
CRPF and the pilots would be called from the
Army/BSF/Air Force.
• Even the Central government has formed the COBRA
which is a special force formed to deal with Naxalism in
any state.
9. Social Integration approach
The government started the Backward Districts initiative in
2003-2004 and the Backward Regions Grant Fund (BRGF)
under which 55 of the worst affected areas in 9 states were
to be provided with funds to the tune of Rs. 2475 crores to
tackle the problem of Naxalism.
Various schemes have been launched by the government

Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY)
The National Rural Employment Guarantee
Programme (NREGP)
National Rural Health mission (NRHM).
Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA),

of the Ministry of Rural Development, Agriculture,
Panchayati Raj and Tribal affairs.
10. The Laws Made by the Government
• Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy, 2007.
• Forest Rights Act, 2006.
11. The Central Government views the naxalite menace as an
area of serious concern. The Government remains firmly
committed and determined to address the problem. The
current strategy is :-
• To strengthen intelligence set-up at the state level.
• Pursue effective and sustained intelligence driven police
action against naxalites and their infrastructure individually
and jointly by the states.
• Accelerate development in the naxal affected areas.
13. conclusion
• It is clear from the above statistics that the steps
taken by government is effective as the violence is
decreased as compare to previous year but
naxalites are still active. So we can say that steps
are not enough to end naxalism from India. Only
with consolidated efforts on the part of the legal
and political framework socio-economic reforms
can be implemented, and the problem of Naxalism
can be tackled.
