In a powerful address at the Police Flag Day Parade in Hyderabad, Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy extended an olive branch to Maoist insurgents, urging them to lay down their arms and join the national mainstream. This plea comes as a significant development in the state's long-standing battle against Naxalism and terrorism.
The Chief Minister acknowledged the recent trend of Maoists surrendering, encouraging the remaining insurgents to follow suit. He emphasized the importance of their reintegration into society, inviting them to contribute to the country's development and Telangana's reconstruction. This appeal is a strategic move to weaken extremist ideologies and foster peace.
Reddy commended the Telangana Police for their exceptional work in combating Naxalism and terrorism, ranking them first in the country according to the India Justice Report 2025. The police have successfully adapted new technologies and implemented unique policies, setting an example in tackling cybercrimes, drug trafficking, and various anti-social activities. The establishment of the 'Cyber Security Bureau' and the Elite Action Group for Drug Law Enforcement (EAGLE) are testament to their proactive approach.
As the state mourns the loss of police personnel, including Greyhounds commandos and constables, the Chief Minister assured support for their families. The ceremony honored the sacrifices made by these brave officers, with the Chief Minister announcing ex gratia payments and other benefits for the bereaved families. This somber reminder underscores the ongoing challenges and the commitment required to secure a peaceful Telangana.
