The Union Minister of State for Home Affairs, Sri Prakash Jaiswal, informed the Rajya Sabha (Upper House of Parliament) on April 16 that cannabis cultivation and its trade have become a source of finance for the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) in Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand and Orissa, reports Economic Times.

"In its strongholds, the CPI (Maoist) collects 'levy' from licensee cannabis cultivators who cultivate excess land over and above the permitted limits," he added. The Minister also mentioned that there is no specific evidence available to indicate any nexus between the country's left-wing extremists, the Maoists of Nepal and Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
