VICE-President CP Radhakrishnan, on his first visit to Chhattisgarh on Wednesday to mark the silver jubilee celebrations of the state, appealed to all Naxalites to lay down arms, noting that Maoism is on the wane, thanks to the combined efforts of security forces and the state government.
"Chhattisgarh is proud, as we are now ending Naxalism, which has long hindered the state's growth. Peace is a must. Without peace, there can be no development," he emphasised.
He also released the 21st instalment of Mahatari Vandan Yojana for 69 lakh beneficiaries, including 7,658 women from Bastar's villages that have recently been freed from Maoist influence.
