Maoist attack
It is disheartening that yet another meticulously planned and well-calculated ambush has claimed the lives of our security personnel. The Maoist problem is a long-standing one, arising from socio-economic issues. It may be recalled that at one point, demonetisation was hailed as the panacea to wipe out terrorism and Naxalism from the country. The Dantewada attack only makes it imperative that the government adopt a holistic and whole-hearted approach to root out the menace of naxalism.
