Why No AFSPA In Maoist Areas

[Tshering22]

Simply because Army don't operate in Maoist hit areas. Omar knows it well, is playing to domestic audience.

I wish the Army does. What's the effing use of all that firepower if we cannot crush anti-national threats?

It seems that the Chief minister is arguing that while other States can reject the use of Army, why has it been imposed on his State. No wonder he's referred as puppet minister.

Hmm one thing...Maoist and jihadists aren't the same. We know Maoist are brutal killers , but there is scope for reconciliation and negotiation.

On other hands jihadis are brain dead Zombies . A bullet in the head is all they need so as to stop their miseries and meet their 72.

AfSA for NE states is a security requirement of locals so that that don't hurt each other.

But keeping permanent troops is not a solution man. The media must be blanked out off news for sometime till Army's special units engage in combing combat operations. Start targeting these groups whether Maoists or Isak Muivah or Jihadis or whatever. Use inhuman force to finish them off with the condition that they either adopt or go extinct. That's the only long term solution possible. And to do this, we have to do 2 things:

Either kick out the human rights terrorist supporters like China did.
OR
Keep them in the dark until combat operations are over.

This continuous deployment of troops is of no use until we don't give them full power to act at will.

State police are best for any law & order situation in the states . Punjab police wiped out militancy when you had a police Chief like KPS Gill and a brave CM .

Maoist are getting bolder because we have different states with totally different approaches.

But i know our politicians , they will happily neutralize these Maoists once they get too big for their boots like Mamta did to Mahato.

Maoist are a political problem that don't need military solutions . Until it goes for a solution there will more politics and sadly more deaths.

Let's face it - AFSPA does come with many risks, many of which are the reason for the Maoist movement. While no one questions the professionalism of our armed forces, a few rotten apples will exacerbate the situation.

Maoists are not terrorists or separatists, they are just misguided and brainwashed people who have been led to believe that the constitution and democracy are against them. We need a iron hand to check their existence and activities, but let's not forget they are Indian citizens, and need to be treated as such.

This is the attitude that bolsters the Maoists to commit more crimes.

Sending in the Army to deal with militancy or threats to the integrity of the nation is the decision of the Central Government and authorized by the President of India. It may or may not be based on the recommendations of the state authorities.

Maoists are local thugs, irrespective of their romanticized "class warfare" ideology. Their demands are not 'separatist' but apparently for more 'rights'. Thus AFSPA is not applicable to the maoist affected areas. Plus, either the central govt or the state govt have the powers to revoke AFSPA in the areas, although, IIRC, the President has the final say in such matters.

Why is no one demanding AFSPA in Maoist-affected areas? Omar


Drawing a parallel between insurgency in his state and the attacks in the Maoist-affected areas, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has said his state should be given a choice on revoking the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) from some areas.

"If Maoist-affected states can choose not to use the Army, why can't my state choose not to use it in some areas?" Omar wrote on micro-blogging site Twitter.

"I want to know why no one is demanding AFSPA in these areas when they are so keen to see it continue in J&K," he said.

The chief minister, however, dismissed suggestions that he was supporting the use of Army to tackle Maoists.

"I'm not. I'm asking why those making a big deal about it in my state are happy to be quiet in this case with a worse problem."

Hypocrisy or lack of appetite. ?

While kashmir has problems, with extremist and terrorists, funded and trained by pakistan, it has AFSPA, while Maoist are local but6 secular organism, who dont believe in religious state...
But Terrorist in kashmir want an islamic state with suport from pakistan...
There lies the diference...

That might be something you are proud of but just for the record Punjabi's (in. myself) don't agree with you on this mater

As a Hindu, you seem close to the so called Jihadi's psyche, expanding on what you said, one could argue that who knows the freedom fighters feel much more privileged for not getting toasted and ending up as fish food.

Give it wahtever fancy name you like; but terrorism has to be crushed with military force. Even if it means a strong centre imposing it on the states. If a central government of that resolve comes, I don't mind seeing the state ministers getting ignored and action taking place. About time these terrorists are booted out. If it were my state affected, I would welcome the Army save my people get rid of these terrorists.

How shamelessly these chief ministers reject the use of military for cheap votes is beyond me. This is where federalism sucks; in times of national security crisis like Maoists.

This is the attitude that bolsters the Maoists to commit more crimes.

The root cause of internal problems in India is that liberal idiots and la-la land secularist dodos are given the total reins of the country without a counter hardline and more pragmatic side to balance it. This involves in media, internet, ministries, news etc you name it. And this is when terrorists start taking the country for a free ride.

Press the state CMs to shut up or suffer legal penalties for supporting Maoists, get the military to get into action and give them sweeping powers--- I bet a truckload of beer that it won't take more than 3 months to exterminate Maoist scum from India. Each and every Red.
