State’s Rehabilitation Policy Yields Results

The Chief Minister stated that the surrender was the result of the state’s inclusive and citizen-centric policies, particularly the government’s surrender and rehabilitation policy. In a single day, 25 Naxalites surrendered in Bijapur, followed by 16 in Dantewada, 13 in Kanker, 8 in Narayanpur, and 5 in Sukma. These former insurgents have now pledged to return to the mainstream of society and participate in the state’s development journey.

1,570 Naxalites Returned to Mainstream in 18 Months

Highlighting the impact of sustained efforts by the government, Mr. Sai said that 1,570 Naxalites have surrendered in the last 18 months alone. “This figure is a testament to the success of our transparent governance, compassionate policies, and sincere efforts to rebuild lives through rehabilitation and opportunity,” he added.

Support from Centre and Infrastructure Push

Mr. Sai credited the leadership of Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Mr. Amit Shah for their continuous support in ensuring security and development in remote regions. He said that basic facilities like roads, drinking water, electricity, education, healthcare, and transport are now reaching the most Naxal-affected and backward areas, significantly weakening the influence of extremist forces.

“Puna Margem” Policy: A Path to Revival

Referring to the “Puna Margem: Revival through Rehabilitation” policy, the Chief Minister stated, “This policy is our pledge to ensure a better and brighter future for surrendered Naxalites.” He affirmed that the government is fully committed to their reintegration into society and to ensuring lasting peace in Bastar.

A Message of Hope and Transformation

Concluding his remarks, Mr. Sai said, “The surrender of 67 Naxalites is not just a security success—it is a message of hope. Bastar is moving forward, from fear to prosperity. The new dawn of development has truly arrived.”
