|December 14, 2025
Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah on Saturday asserted that Maoist violence would be eliminated from Bastar and the rest of the country by 31 March 2026, declaring that India is now “standing at the threshold” of becoming free from Left Wing Extremism.
Addressing the closing ceremony of the Bastar Olympics 2025 in Jagdalpur, Mr Shah said the Centre and the Chhattisgarh government were working in close coordination to ensure that peace, development and opportunity replace decades of conflict in the region.
With Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai and Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Sharma present, Mr Shah said the government's resolve was not limited to ending violence but extended to transforming Bastar into one of the country’s most developed tribal regions by December 2030.
