Union Home Minister Amit Shah has set a deadline for ending Left-Wing Extremism in India, declaring that the country will be free of Maoist violence by March 31.
Speaking at the 57th Raising Day ceremony of the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), Shah announced that security forces will ensure the defeat of any attempt to create a so-called 'Red Corridor' stretching from Tirupati to Pashupati.
The CISF has made significant contributions to the effort in states such as Odisha, Chhattisgarh, and Telangana, with personnel receiving 13,700 medals for bravery and distinguished service.
The Union home ministry has also decided to entrust the security of all major ports in the country to the CISF, adding a significant maritime dimension to its existing role.
Shah inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for several projects worth ₹890 crore under five different schemes, including residential complexes for CISF personnel and reserve battalion campuses.
