Maoists operating with China-made arms: Home Secretary | Union Home Secretary GK Pillai, said the Maoists are using Chinese made arms and added that they did not enjoy any support from Beijing. Interacting with the
media here, Pillai clarified that a similar statement made by him recently, was
quoted out of context in a section of media that Beijing was aiding the rebels.
"I state very clearly that it was Chinese arms that were coming in, not support
from the government of China and that had been made absolutely clear, it is not
only because from Myanmar, Bangladesh and so on...arms smuggling is one of the
largest businesses in the world," Pillai said. He also reviewed the security preparedness
and progress in the anti Maoist operation in the state with senior police officials.
Pillai said the state governments were closely interacting with the Centre to
tackle the Maoist menace. "There is increase in cooperation among state governments,
there is increase in sharing of intelligence among the state police forces and
as was decided in the last chief ministers' conference, state governments are
cooperating with each other to try and see how best operations on the border,
both bilateral and trilateral junction, are being carried out," he said. |
