In the opinion of the Home Minister Naxals or Maoists are the greatest threat being faced by the country at this moment. Seems that police in Bengal, acting on information, were able to surround a Naxal called Kishenji in his hideout and were pretty confident of getting him when they were ordered to stop firing by the Communist state government in Bengal. Not only that, the Bengal government is to release 24 Naxal women in exchange for a policeman kidnapped by the Naxals who would have been rescued had the police operation been allowed to continue. It is hard to imagine why politicans, criminal though they are, would endanger the country in such a way. Are they taking instructions from a foreign power? If they are they should be hanged as traitors. At the very least the Home Minister, who is a hotshot lawyer, should make it possible for relatives of anyone killed by Kishenji in the future to sue the Bengal government collectively and the Chief Minister personally for compensation. Meanwhile the DMK is pressuring the Prime Minister not to pursue the case of 2G telecom licenses granted to companies for a pittance by Mr. Raja which were then sold to foreign companies for hundreds of billions. The government lost Rs. 600 billions in taxes and, possibly, trillions in license fees. Wonder if the rumours of Rs. 50 billions are true?
