Chidambaram criticised by websites sympathetic to Maoists | Union Home Minister P Chidambaram's appeal to the Maoists to give up arms and come for talks seems to have hurt the ultra left wing cadres, which is being reflected in blogs and websites sympathetic to them. Of late, blogs and websites
sympathetic to the Maoist ideology have started criticising Chidambaram. In a
sarcastic criticism in one of the latest post, which is said to be a letter addressed to
Chidambaram, the blogger states: "As Prime Minister stated a few months ago that
poverty will be rooted out from the country, we understand that there is an urgent
need to eliminate the poor people and Operation Green Hunt is a romantic idea to
achieve it." The letter also criticised democratic set up and elections in the country.
"We would also like to congratulate your obsessiveness for democracy and
democratic
setup in this era, where everyone is busy bringing their kins and relatives for
politics," it added. "As you have stated many times violence is not acceptable
in democracy; of course it excludes state sponsored violence, right?" the letter
questioned. Earlier, in the day, a private news channel reported that Maoists
have put conditions for talks. Quoting Maoist spokesperson Gopal, the report said
the Centre should remove all security forces from the Maoist-controlled areas,
should release all political prisoners from jails across the nation- these include
the likes of Maoist ideologue Kobad Ghandy to make talks happen. Maoists also
reported that all memorandum of understanding (MOU)s with companies should be
cancelled in Maoist affected areas. Gopal also demanded to put a stop to all
operations
being carried out against Maoists. Home Minister Chidambaram has repeatedly said
that no operations were being launched and the Centre was only assisting the states
to fight Naxals. |
