Maoist Insurgency Operation: Turning Point in India’s War on Extremism| Oneindia

On May 21, 2025, a Maoist insurgency operation carried out by Indian security forces marked a decisive moment in the country's internal security history. The neutralisation of Nambala Keshava Rao, alias Basavaraju—the most wanted Naxalite leader—during Operation Black Forest in Chhattisgarh, reflects the intensity and effectiveness of India’s Maoist insurgency operation strategy. Basavaraju, the CPI (Maoist) chief, was the brain behind multiple deadly ambushes. His elimination, alongside the dismantling of guerrilla infrastructure and the capture of 450+ IEDs, is seen as a major boost in India’s fight against Left-Wing Extremism. With over 320 security camps, infrastructure growth and a new rehabilitation policy, the Indian government is pushing strongly towards a Naxal-free India by 2026. Watch the full report on how this Maoist insurgency operation became a landmark in counter-insurgency efforts. #MaoistInsurgencyOperation #OperationBlackForest #NaxalFreeIndia #BasavarajuKilled #LeftWingExtremism ~HT.178~PR.282~PR.100~GR.124~
