Govt razes Naxal memorials to stop regrowth of ideology
The Morning Standard
|February 23, 2026
INDIA'S intensified campaign against Left-Wing Extremism (LWE) has entered a decisive new phase, with security forces expanding their footprints beyond armed cadres by dismantling symbols associated with Naxal ideology.
The latest initiative, dubbed "Operation Demolishment," targets memorials and monuments allegedly erected by Naxal operatives and cadres to commemorate their leaders and propagate their ideology in their bid to entice people to join their ranks. Officials in the security agencies said that a total of 203 such memorials and monuments have been demolished so far in Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh, two states that have been long witnessing and suffering the most due to Naxal activities. The forces have reported that the drive gathered unprecedented momentum in 2026, as the bulk of the demolitions took place in that year.
