'Congress has close connection with Naxals, anti-national people': MP CM

MP CM Mohan Yadav alleges Congress-Naxal connections threaten national security, while Amit Shah highlights Naxal districts reduced from 126 to 11 under Modi government.

"The alliance between the Congress and Naxals has been a threat to national security. - Mohan Yadav"

Bhopal, Nov 29

In a scathing attack on Congress, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Saturday accused the grand old party of having a "close connection with Naxalites and anti-national people".

Chief Minister Yadav said that the "alliance between the Congress and Naxals has been a threat to national security."

In a post on the social media platform X, he said, "During the UPA government, the National Advisory Council (NAC) attempted to weaken the strict measures being taken by security forces against Naxalism."

Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's guidance and Union Home Minister Amit Shah's leadership, the Centre's 'zero-tolerance' policy to eliminate Naxalism has reduced the number of Naxal-infested districts from 126 in 2014 to 11 in 2025.

CM Yadav's assertion comes at a time when the 60th edition of the All India Conference of Director Generals/Inspector Generals of Police has kicked off in neighbouring state Chhattisgarh on Saturday.

Accompanied by National Security Advisor Ajit Doval, Ministers of State for Home Nityanand Rai and Bandi Sanjay Kumar, Intelligence Bureau Director Tapan Kumar Deka, and Home Secretary Govind Mohan, Union Home Minister Shah highlighted the conference's role in reviewing policing hurdles and charting a roadmap for 'Viksit Bharat' - a developed India fortified against emerging threats.

The Union Home Minister stated that the country has achieved significant progress in the last 11 years in its operations against radicalisation, extremism, insurgency and narcotics.

He reiterated the significance of the accuracy of intelligence, clarity of objectives, and synergy in action to shield the nation from new-age threats.

Home Minister Shah reiterated the Modi government's "permanent solutions" to longstanding issues - Naxalism, Northeast insurgency, and Jammu and Kashmir unrest - transforming them into integrated growth engines.

He called for a "360-degree attack" on narcotics, ensuring "not even an inch of space" for traffickers, aligning with the national goal of a drug-free India.

The conclave concludes on Sunday, with outcomes expected to shape national policing policies amid rising geopolitical tensions.

While I appreciate the progress against Naxalism, such serious allegations need concrete evidence. Political statements shouldn't undermine our democratic institutions. Let's focus on solutions rather than blame games.

The reduction in Naxal-affected districts is remarkable achievement! Home Minister Shah's 360-degree approach against narcotics is also much needed. Our security forces deserve all the credit for their sacrifices. Jai Hind! 🙏

As someone who has family in Chhattisgarh, I've seen the real improvement in security situation. The coordination between state and central forces has made a huge difference in tribal areas. Hope this conference brings more positive changes.

Zero tolerance policy is working! But we must also address the root causes - poverty, lack of development in remote areas. Security + development = permanent solution. Good to see government focusing on both aspects.

The intelligence and policing improvements are impressive. However, political rhetoric about "anti-national" connections should be backed by legal evidence. Let's maintain constitutional dignity while discussing national security.
