◦Present measures to contain militant Naxal activities by March26 are expected to be largely successful 

◦Need to think beyond April 26 about the strategy to ensure , there is no recurrence of such insurgent elements

◦Naxals had focused on rights of tribals pertaining to land, water & minerals and convinced large numbers to oppose any exploitation of these resources 

◦Development of these areas either by government or using private companies needs to ensure , locals don’t feel alienated by the same

◦Gadchiroli model of providing partnership to tribals in mines  through making them stock holders needs to be repeated in other areas as well

◦At present police and forest departments have large numbers of locals on their role. They need to be retrained to provide leadership to locals. Other departments including health, paramedics, ayushman , sports, education, horticulture, medical plantation, animal husbandry, tourism may be encouraged to provide this training. Police & Forest employees should train locals under supervision of concerned departments in these areas

◦Tribals / naxals in prison need to be provided vocational training & kept in open jails with permission to meet / stay with families 

◦To tackle religious conversion, campaign needs to be lodged to restore them to their faith & preserve their true identity 

◦Regular visits by outside journalists, tourists to these areas to showcase them development areas and counter narrative by Urban naxals

◦Stern action against urban naxals , who might be provoking locals and indulging in false propaganda to create distrust about democratic institutes

◦Identify police officers who might have done any alleged atrocities and if required take action against them departmentally
