"Telangana suffered from Maoists and terrorists activities in the past. The indomitable spirit displayed by the state police is the result of fast declining terror and naxal activities in the state in recent times", the Chief Minister said that many key Maoists have already surrendered.

"I am appealing to all Maoists leaders and activists who are active to surrender before the police and join mainstream life,” he said.

The Chief Minister asserted that Maoists should join as partners in the nation building and the country's development by shedding the naxal ideology. He commended the Telangana police for their exemplary service in rooting out naxal menace in the state.

Paying glorious tributes to the police martyrs on the Police Commemoration Day at the police martyrs memorial in the city on Tuesday, Revanth Reddy said that 191 police personnel, including 6 from Telangana laid down their lives while discharging their duties in the country.
