In the wake of the ambush of the Warangal collector's vehicle by left-wing extremists, Naxalites of the People's War Group (PWG), on February 12, intelligence agencies have reportedly received information that the group is planning major strikes in the near future. According to police sources, the likely targets include unarmed police personnel, people's representatives and senior police officials working in Naxalite-affected districts. A senior official engaged in anti-Naxalite operations said, on February 15, after the announcement of the formation of People's Guerilla Army (PGA), the Naxalites were in a desperate mood to prove their existence and were planning a major strike on selected targets. Police have tightened the security to the possible targets.

These conditions are: Lifting of the ban on the group and recognising it as a political party; taking action against policemen involved in 'fake encounters' and conducting a public enquiry; lifting ban on all organisations fighting for 'democratic rights of the people'; registering cases and arresting all 'renegade' Naxalites and 'human rights activists'; and taking action against those policemen who are 'planting moles' in the group in a bid to eliminate its leaders.

Andhra Pradesh Home Minister Devender Goud, while addressing a press conference in Hyderabad on July 31, said that the government was ready to talk to left-wing extremists, Naxalites of the People’s War Group (PWG) and any other Naxalite organisation if they come forward for talks.

He added that the present government was trying to create a conducive atmosphere in the State by dealing with the basic problem of lack of development, unemployment and poverty in the affected areas. He said, "We are convinced that the Naxal issue is not just a law and order problem and various departments in tandem should work together for the backward area development to eradicate poverty, improve the living standards of people in the backward regions which are Naxal infested".

He asked all sections of the society to join hands to achieve this goal. Stressing on the futility of violence as a means for social change, he said, "Violence can achieve nothing.

21 left-wing extremists, Naxalites, surrendered before Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu in Hyderabad, on October 3. Of these, 15 belonged to the People’s War Group (PWG) and six to the Communist Party of India, Marxist-Leninist CPI-ML (Janasakthi) and Praja Prathigatana groups. They include a ‘District Committee’ member of the PWG wanted in nine murders and carrying a reward of Rs. three lakhs on his head. Speaking to the media after the surrenders, Naidu reiterated his appeal to the Naxalites to join the mainstream. He said his government has instituted a rehabilitation package for surrendered Naxalites and most of the persons who joined the Naxal movement did so out of sheer ignorance and not driven by hardcore ideology. He added, "We tackle Naxalism from all angles, law and order and also from socio-economic view point. But killing of elected persons is ridiculous". The Chief Minister also appealed to political parties to rise above ideological divides and cooperate with the government to combat the menace of Naxalism in the State. Speaking on the occasion, the State police chief said a total of 201 Naxalites surrendered so far in the year 2001.

Andhra Pradesh Director General of Police HJ Dora, while speaking to the media in Hyderabad on December 31, said, despite an increase in the number of murders committed by left-wing extremists, Naxalite outfit the Peoples’ War Group (PWG), in the year 2001, Naxal violence registered a decline by about 30 per cent and the ‘continuing military successes’ of the police have forced the PWG to effect a major strategy change of retreating into the forest areas. The total number of offences committed by the Naxalites stood at 788 (including 188 murders) in 2001 as against a total of 867 offences (including 124 murders) in the preceding year. "Year 2001 has been very difficult for us. But we have many major successes during the year,'' he said. The police chief also pointed that with the police maintained relentless pursuit the PWG had been forced to retreat into the forest areas leaving the plains and the semi-forest areas. Dora said the PWG was now concentrating more on the military training of its cadre, rather than on their political education. "This made us to revise our strategy and we have succeeded in engaging the People's Guerrilla Army platoons 15 times, thrice each in Adilabad, Nizamabad and Karimnagar and six times in Warangal,'' Dora said.
