April 02, 2025
|The Statesman Siliguri
Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday said the nation has achieved a new milestone by significantly reducing the number of districts most affected by Left-Wing Extremism (LWE) to just six from 12, thus taking a giant stride towards building a LWE-free Bharat.
In a post on the X platform, he said the Modi government is building a "Sashakt, Surakshit and Samriddh Bharat" with a ruthless approach to Maoist extremism and relentless efforts for all-pervasive development. "Bharat is determined to uproot Naxalism for good by 31st March 2026."
The total number of districts affected by Maoist insurgency in the country was 38. Among these, the number of most affected districts has reduced to six from 12. The number of "Districts of Concern" has also come down to six from nine, and the number of other LWE-affected districts has also been reduced from 17 to six.
