Union Home Secretary R.K. Singh has pointed fingers at some State Governments saying they lack “commitment’’ in fighting the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) threat, reports Deccan Chronicle. According to him, in these States, the local Police is not taking the “initiative’’. Speaking before a Parliamentary Panel about the problems being faced in “tackling the menace of Naxalism’’ in April, Singh said that he wants to be “frank’’ while making his observations. “The operations, in which our forces (Central forces) are engaged, are very difficult for our forces for a number of reasons. Again, I will be very frank. Our forces go to the state, they are from outside. It is the state police force which has local knowledge and local intelligence which is supposed to have the ground-level intelligence; they are supposed to know the situation on the ground. They are supposed to have sources in the rural areas to find out as to where these armed groups are. The Central Armed Police Forces are supposed to assist them. Unfortunately, we find that in some states, I will not say all states, this is happening, but in some states this is not happening,” he said.

The Union Government has underlined its intention to set up the National Counter-Terrorism Centre (NCTC) on the basis of the suggestions and reservations expressed at the Chief Ministers' meeting on May 5, reports The Hindu. In his concluding remarks at the meeting, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram stated the government's resolve to set up the centre, while offering to re-examine thorny issues, including locating the counter-terrorism apparatus in the Intelligence Bureau (IB). Justifying the need to set up an NCTC or a similar organisation, Chidambaram called for the need “to move beyond looking upon counter-terrorism as a police operation and enlarge the scope to make it a truly counter-terrorism organisation that will mobilise all elements of national power.”

The Supreme Court on May 7 suspended the life sentence of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) politburo member Narayan Sanyal (78), held guilty of committing sedition by a Chhattisgarh court in 2010, and granted bail to him, reported The Asian Age. A bench of justices G. S. Singhvi and S. J. Mukhopadhaya gave bail to Sanyal, considering his age and the fact that he has already spent over six years in jail since his arrest in 2006. The bench said the concerned trial court would impose the condition to its satisfaction for Sanyal's release on bail.

A top Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadre, identified as Pradeep Kumar Singh, was arrested by the Delhi Police Crime Branch in Rohini on May 10, reports The Hindu. The Police claim to have recovered a loaded 7.65 mm pistol, and two live cartridges, from his possession.

Some of these front organisations clandestinely receiving foreign funds cannot be ruled out," he further said.

The Union Cabinet has cleared a INR 85 billion rural roads package to ensure growth and remove Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) influence in forested tribal areas, reported The Economic Times. The three-year roads programme, under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY), will provide connectivity to 6,000 habitations in 78 Maoist-affected Districts, which have been left out of the core network. "This is a major step as it fulfills a long-standing demand of states. Whenever I travelled in Maoist-hit areas, this demand has kept coming up. The PMGSY is the single-most important rural development intervention that can significantly transform the ground-level situation in these Districts. Naxals realise this and so they first target roads," Rural Development Minister Jairam Ramesh said.
