maoists enjoy mass support? From where did you get that from..... They burn down schools and hospitals, attack trains, kill anyone who does not support them, periodically set farmers on fire who resist them...
The maoist movement is dying, it never came out of the forests and jungles and you talk about immense support?
They have no chance against a counter insurgency strategy which includes development, propaganda and state of the art equipment...
They are even running out of ammo
Maoists running out of ammunition

Don't always believe what you read from paid news. Learn the ground realities. The Maoists are able to make their own AK's from scratch. They source explosives and dynamite for mining operations to use in their bombs, IEDS and such. Check the stats on how much dynamite goes missing in India? Tons. Do you really think bullets are a problem to make. Saltpeter used to make gunpowder is sourced in India itself. I highly doubt they have any problems. Don;t forget the training from LTTE and Gurkhas.
