my friend..u r wrong there....i have little knowledge on maoists but northeast is a different issue......know this...any separatist movement cannot thrive much longer without public backing,may it be very small.....
crushing it is just temporary solution...u kill a terrorist means u killed a man...but then my friend the ideology lives...n in the eyes of the simple spectator he becomes martyr...more will believe n more will join.....wounds r deeper then u think n a healing hand is required...
look at kashmir...what hell we(india n pakistan)made out of it....n somebody said it to be heaven on earth...............before it was just a border issue now it became a issue of our pride,our ego...... which kasmiri people suffer ...
NE people r very simple...........but this simplicity has bought us pain n poverty.....NE states r the poorest in india......ever thought why...do u think natural resources r not abundant.....oil,gas,timbre,agriculture.water..is available more then needed.......but its the negligence of indian govt. which have resulted in this destructive consequences .............i sometimes think that delhi doesn't even remembers that they have few states in north east.........
