Union Home Minister Shivraj Patil while making a suo moto statement on the killing of Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) member Sunil Kumar Mahato in the Lok Sabha (lower house of Indian Parliament) on March 7 said that Naxal (left-wing extremist) violence has declined by 6.15 per cent from 1,608 incidents in 2005 to 1,509 in 2006. Patil said, "While the naxal problem is of serious nature, combined efforts of the State and Central Governments have shown some level of containment." He, however, said, "We need greater concerted and cooperative efforts between the States, as well as between the Centre and the States to achieve more acceptable results." "We expect that the motivation and dedication of the State police, coupled with financial, technical support that includes equipment and manpower support from the Government of India along with developmental programmes in the naxal affected areas will have a significant impact on this problem", he added.

Cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) on March 31-evening launched an attack in the Riga block of Sitamarhi district in north Bihar bordering Nepal, according to Indian Express.
