NAXAL : SOUNDS as if some thing which is very earthy thing which rose through the son of the soils. started against the landlords and the CPI cadre in West Bengal,it has covered thousands miles in last 60 odd years to become a cancer which has spread across the nation. the Red Corridor as the name given to the infected (affected) area has seen the worse in the resent past in terms of atrocities and causalities by the hands of maoist guerrillas.
From the Ministry of Home Affairs it has been stated that:
1996: 156 deaths
1997: 428 deaths
1998: 270 deaths
1999: 363 deaths

Later, on 23 April, 2009, they also struck in the second phase of polling in Jamshedpur and surrounding areas in Jharkhand injuring several member of the polling party. May 2009: 16 police die in suspected Maoist attack
The BBC maintains that upwards of 6,000 people have died in the Naxal uprising.
all these facts shows the xtent of naxal brutalities and their mindless actions in poorest areas of the country where need of the hour is to let the government machinery to work in tandem with the villagers so as to lead them to prosperity.
the guns are not the friend of poors but the plow is!
the requirement is food, shelter, healthcare, education and prosperity which can come through the peace only .
the biggest question here 'how to attain and maintain peace?"
solution is complex like the path of SILVER LINING which proposes to kill on the basis of theory of Mao Zeodong . the solution lies in the hand of common man only.
but seems there is a tough path to move on in search of peace,
hereby i am stopping as there is alot more to put into thoughts but not without preparation.
so bye folks!!!
will catch u soon.
