The ideology of naxalism should be eradicated through dialogue and not by the use of force alone

"We firmly believe that the ideology of naxalism should be addressed only through dialogue and not by the use of force. India must find a political solution to Naxalism," Kavitha said

On BRS president KCR attack on the Congress government for failing to fulfill the promises made to people, the Chief Minister said the State government was implementing several welfare and development programmes.

Chandrashekhar Rao, emphasizing that the operation primarily focused in neighboring Chhattisgarh, condemned the massacre as unjust and "against dharma." He urged the Centre to halt the killings and instead invite the Maoists for peace talks to hear their concerns.

Negotiating with Maoists is a double-edged sword. It is imperative for the government to keep past experiences in mind and tread cautiously

If the governments in Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Odisha, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh and Telangana stop the ‘genocide’ they are carrying out; stops setting up new police camps, the Maoist party would announce a ceasefire, they said.
