Maoists control 1/3rd of India. Arundhati Roy on CNN explaining Maoism in India
How often have you heard that one-third of India is gripped with Naxals, or Maoists, or LWE-afflicted (LWE stands for Left Wing Extremism in government parlance)? One-third! Is it one-third area, or one-third population, or one-third districts, or one-third of India's states!
How much of India is Maoist-affected?
The Red Corridor is expanding

^^They are not maoists!
The separatist insurgents in North East India (the 7 sister states) are not Maoists (the Maoists are not separatists), but there are plenty of classified intel reports that indicate collaboration between the Maoists & the insurgents in the North East.

One-third of India actually creates an impression that one-third of India's geographical area -- and thus one-third of India's population -- is under the grip of Maoists. That sounds really horrible. Precisely why it is used by those who wish to portray India in poor light internationally.
Where does this figure of one-third come from? India has a total of 640 districts and The Economist magazine (July 22nd, 2010) suggested that 200 of them are affected by Naxal insurgency. This brings us an approximate figure of one-third. International wire agency AFP (May 15, 2010) claimed that 20 of India's 28 states are affected by Naxalite conflict. By that yardstick, 70 percent of India is threatened by Maoists. Other media reports talk of a 'Red Corridor', which covers 40 percent of India's geographical area. 33, 40 or 70 percent -- take your pick.
The notion that 200 districts or one-third of India is under the grip of Maoists is bogus. Maoists present a formidable challenge in 35 districts across nine states in the country, and have a significant presence in another 48 districts. This is not to diminish the challenge posed by the Maoists, which is the gravest internal security threat facing the country today. While those who try and brush the Maoist menace under the carpet are guilty of ignoring the truth, those who overstate the case are equally guilty of spreading fear-mongering and hysteria.
