In a significant development in Chhattisgarh, 27 Naxalites surrendered to security forces in Sukma district, highlighting the government’s ongoing efforts to bring extremists back into the mainstream. The surrendered cadres, including several active members of local Naxal outfits, handed over arms and ammunition as part of the state’s rehabilitation and surrender policy. Officials said that these individuals were provided with assurances of safety and support to help them reintegrate into society.
The Sukma administration welcomed the surrender, describing it as a step toward strengthening peace and development in the region, which has long been affected by Naxal-related violence. Security forces emphasized that sustained dialogue, along with development initiatives, has played a key role in convincing insurgents to give up armed struggle. The state government also pledged to provide vocational training, financial assistance, and educational support to ensure the surrendered Naxalites have opportunities for a stable and productive future.
