Maoists want ‘Operation Kagar’ on Chhattisgarh-Telangana border halted for a month for peace talks
Maoist party's Central Committee issues letters expressing readiness for talks and making confidence-building measures
Kothagudem: The CPI (Maoist) North West Bastar bureau in-charge, Rupesh, has appealed to the government to halt the ongoing ‘Operation Kagar’ in Bijapur district on the Chhattisgarh-Telangana border for a month to create suitable conditions for peace talks.
He said everyone wanted to address the issue through peace talks.
The Maoist party’s Central Committee has also issued letters expressing its readiness for the talks and making confidence-building measures.
But the government seems to have chosen the path of suppression and violence resulting in the ongoing massive offensive in Bijapur.
Rupesh wanted the government to ensure an amicable environment for peace talks, which he said would yield positive results.
He hoped that the government would respond positively to the Maoists’ request.
