Kothagudem: Superintendent of Police Dr. Vineeth G called on the Maoists to draw inspiration from Mahatma Gandhi’s ideologies of truth, peace and non-violence.

The Maoists were committing acts of violence by adopting the outdated ideologies of people who followed the path of violence in other countries. Thus the naxals were causing trouble to the innocent tribals and became obstacles to development, he said.

Dr. Vineeth paid tributes to Mahatma Gandhi marking Gandhi Jayanthi here on Monday. Many movements like non-cooperation movement, Salt Satyagraha, Quit India were carried out by Gandhi to drive the British out of our country, he reminded.

One should fight in a democratic manner by following the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi who fought non-violently for Indian freedom. Maoists should follow him, quit their violent ways and fight through the ballot, he suggested.
