• PM says- The most dangerous security India ever
faced

forested hilly terrains,economically important areas
mining belts forcefully
-compelling public to support through fear pshycosis

5. Failure of present Naxalism
tackling approaches
Lack of proper coordination between security
operation and developmental approaches
No distinct approaches t0 different areas like Most
affected, medium affected and less affected areas
General neglegience of area in all points of view like
personnel and infrastructure wise.

6. Fear pschycosis-strategy of Naxals
The fear pschycosis-base of the success of naxalism
Punishing the people who opposes their ideology
through Jan Adalat

the last 10 years.

corridor(MCC) of the naxal affected
areas
