Minister Shah praised the forces that carried out Operation Black Forest in Karregutta on the Chhattisgarh-Telangana border. In that operation, 31 Naxals were killed between April and May last year. He said that the operation was carried out in a heat of about 46 degrees. He said that the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) forces showed great courage to liberate the hills from the Naxals.

He said that ten years ago, there were three major hotspots in the country, terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir, infiltration in the North-East, and Naxalism in the forests of Chhattisgarh were big problems, but now those areas have become a symbol of progress and peace. The Minister said that 700 CRPF personnel have lost their lives in the North-Eastern states, 780 in Naxal areas, and 540 in Jammu and Kashmir. He said that due to their sacrifices, those areas, which were once the epicenters of violence, have now become peaceful. (Maxim News)
