Implementation of National Policy leads to 76% decline in Maoist violence in 2022
Tuesday, 5 December 2023 Steadfast implementation of the National Policy and Action Plan against Left-wing extremism (LWE) has resulted in consistent decline in Maoist violence across the affected states, with the number of incidents down by 76% in 2022 from a high of 2010, resultant deaths down by 90% and the arc of LWE violence constricted to 45 districts in 2022 from 96 in 2010. Sharing this assessment in written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha, junior home minister Nityanand Rai informed that a substantial decrease in incidence of LWE violence was seen in the last five years.

Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi says, "It is our right to meet anyone. But they are not allowing it. I had spoken about farmers. Speaker told the House that they are not being stopped. Now they have been stopped again. There is a Sri Lanka issue of farmers. There were also people from Child Welfare...I keep doing this (meeting delegations)...My life becomes a bit more difficult as it is easier to meet them there (LoP Chamber in Parliament). Otherwise, now I have to keep coming here."
