New Delhi: Union Home Minister Amit Shah claimed that the idea of Naxalism will be uprooted from the country before March 2026.

He said that the central government has been successful in eliminating Naxalism in the entire country except four districts of Bastar. Home Minister Shah has appealed to the Naxalites to give up violence and surrender.
He said that if the Naxalites do not give up violence, the government will run an all-out campaign against them. We will end Naxalism. He appealed to the Naxalites to surrender before the law, give up their weapons. Giving the example of Kashmir, he said that many people in the North-East and Kashmir have given up weapons and joined the mainstream. You are also welcome to join the mainstream but if this does not happen then we will run a campaign against them.
Shah said that the security forces have achieved significant success in their operations against the Maoists and this problem is now only in four districts of Chhattisgarh.
