Naxalite problem at present is the greatest threat to the internal security of India. The root cause of Naxalism is the glaring inequality in Rural India based on unequal distribution of land.
The book "Naxalism: Causes and Cure" is a new approach to what and why of this vexed problem of uncontrolled Violence by the Naxal rebels in states like Andhra Pradesh, Jharkhand, Chattisgarh, Bihar, Orissa, Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Karnataka, Maharashtra, etc. Equitable distribution of Surplus vested land for Cultivation Purpose is the main Demand of the Naxalites. This is also the centre point of the land reform measures. None can deny this demand.
The problems in implementation of land Reforms differ from state to state. Hence the most important specific component of land reform has been dealt with separately for each state affected by Naxalite violence. Thus, the book has to be read as an Integrated whole.
It should prove as a practical handbook for those who are entrusted with the task of solving the problem of Naxalism in India. |
