PM Repeats “Dimagi Naxal” Note
Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrated Diwali with security personnel in Bastar, Chhattisgarh. He had warned that Naxalites had been wiped out from the forests, but the threat of Naxalism has not been eliminated. PM Modi said that “Dimagi Naxals” had infiltrated organizations and political parties to influence people against democracy and the Constitution.
During his address, PM Modi accused the previous government of not giving free rein to forces to deal with Naxal insurgency. He said his government gave authority to take necessary decisions.
Earlier, Rahul Gandhi had made allegations that foreign forces had played a role in Narendra Modi's becoming and remaining Prime Minister and influenced the decisions on India's financial system.
