Smaller districts to hit Maoist activities hard

The creation of new districts is likely to hit the Maoists activities in the north Telangana. 

With the sufficient force, advanced technology and well-connected informant network, police will be more vigilant on the movements of the Maoists in the smaller districts.  

With the decentralization of Administration, it is easy to focus more on curbing the Maoist activities. New divisions also being created in the stronghold of the Maoists in the districts.      

It is surprising to note that the state government is dividing the existing districts which were once a stronghold of Maoists like Adilabad, Karimnagar, Warangal, and Khammam. It is being viewed as the creation of new districts will push the Maoist further to the corners on the river Pranahitha and the Godavari.

Adilabad district is being divided into Nirmal, Adilabad, and Mancherial, Karimnagar district into Peddapalli, Jagtiyal, Karimnagar and Warangal into Hanamkonda, Warangal, Bhoopalapalli and Mahaboobabad and Khammam into Kothagudem and Khammam districts.

The Maoists activities have already confined to the borders of the rivers Pranahitha and Godavari for sometimes as the state government is taking security measures to control the Maoist activities along the borders of these districts sharing borders with Maharashtra and Chattisgarh states.

Telangana government has launched joint operations against the Maoists with coordination of police of bordering states.
