Police infrastructure to tackle Maoists in Telangana robust: Government

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 15 November 2013 | 17.34

HYDERABAD: Stating that the existing police infrastructure in Telangana is fairly robust, the ministry of home affairs (MHA), in its report to the Group of Ministers (GoM) on Telangana, has cautioned that the ongoing agitations against the bifurcation and subsequent formation of Telangana state may provide a window of opportunity to the banned CPI (Maoist) to regain its ground in the region.

In view of the state bifurcation issue,the MHAs naxal management division has prepared a report on Left Wing Extremism (LWE) situation in Andhra Pradesh and circulated the copy to the GoM. Additional secretary, MHAs naxal management division, Rajeev Sharma is also part of the special task force formed by the MHA to look into various law and order issues related to the state bifurcation and the head of the task force, K Vijay Kumar, also met the GoM in Delhi on Thursday.

As per the prognosis of the naxal management division about the LWE status post bifurcation in Telangana,the twomonth old agitation in Seemandhra in protest against the division of the state necessitated relocation of security forces from Telangana to Seemandhra and this stretched the limitations of the security apparatus in Telangana.The Maoists, eagerly waiting for an opportunity to regain their lost ground in Telangana, may start supporting some overground organizations and they might intensify their political activities by targeting socially marginalized groups like tribals and dalits to enhance their base, the report,acopy of which is available with TOI, said.

As Telangana has a history of strong militant base with a large number of central committee members and overground CPI (Maoist) leaders belonging to the region,they would exploit issues like Polavaram, Singareni Colliery and bauxite mining project by manipulating the affected population from socially marginalized sections.Unless the anti-Naxalite initiatives continue,the Maoists would intensify their efforts to manipulate the situation in their favour, it added.

If there is any perceptible weakening of security apparatus and resolve on the anti-Naxalite front,the Maoists who have formidable armed capabilities in guerilla zones contiguous to Telangana border in Chattisgarh, Odisha and Maharashtra states will make forays into the newly-formed state. The current agitational programmes against the bifurcation and subsequent formation of Telangana state will possibly provide a window to the Maoists to regain its ground in Telangana and,hence,adequate counter measures need to be put in place, the report suggested. It, however, ended by saying the existing police infrastructure in Telangana region is fairly robust.

Of the 23 districts in Andhra Pradesh, 15 districts,including seven from Telangana - Adilabad, Karimnagar, Khammam, Mahbubnagar, Nalgonda, Ranga Reddy and Warangal - were classified as LWE affected,according to the report. Since 2008,169 incidents of LWE-related violence were reported in the seven Telangana districts in which 69 persons lost their lives. Of the LWE-related violence,maximum incidents were reported from Khammam and Visakhapatnam districts.

There has been a significant fall in LWE-related violence during the past one year in Telangana.In 2012,28 incidents of LWE-related violence were reported in which 11 persons lost their lives where as till September 30 in 2013,seven incidents were reported in which three persons lost their lives.
