Two major encounters in Chhattisgarh killed 14 Maoists, while top commander Barsa Deva surrendered in Telangana, prompting state police to claim the upper hand against Naxalism. Additional DGP Vivekanand Sinha stated that the Naxal problem will end before the March 2026 deadline. Telangana police view the surrender as crippling the Maoist military wing.
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has marked two years in office by citing the complete eradication of Naxalism as his most significant achievement. He discussed the state's development initiatives and addressed various challenges. This success involves freeing forests, villages, and cities from Naxalite activities across the state.
