“I also reiterate my resolve that before 31 March, 2026, we will completely eradicate Naxalism from the country so that no citizen of the country has to lose his life due to it,” he wrote on ‘X’ in Hindi.
The home minister said in the direction of making India Naxal-free, the security forces have achieved a big success in Bijapur, Chhattisgarh.
He said that 31 Naxalites were killed in this operation and a huge amount of arms and explosives were also recovered.
Shah said the security forces have also lost two of its brave soldiers “in the effort to end anti-human Naxalism” and the country will always be indebted to these heroes.
“I express my heartfelt condolences to the families of the martyred soldiers,” he said.
