Kannur Range Inspector General of Police (IG), Suresh Raj Purohit, who recently took over ‘Thunderbolt’, the anti-Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) operations in the State, by the ‘special commando force’, said it was beyond any doubt that there was a meticulously woven Maoist network in the jungle zones of the State, reports The Deccan Chronicle on January 6. He said the people of the State have always been complacent and living under the belief that such things would not happen. “But it is a fact that it is here and we should make plans to face it”, he added. He added “No one knows when and where they appear and where they vanish to”. The police officer further said “We have no magic wand to catch them instantly and resolve the problem overnight. It is not a cat and mouse game.”

The Union Minister of Home Affairs (UMHA) Sushilkumar Shinde in Kozhikode District of Kerala on February 26 said incidents of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) perpetrated violence have come down in the country in the past one to two years, reports Zee News. He said the documents circulated by the CPI-Maoist were proof of the decrease in their activities. He further said "In the country, wherever such Naxalite movements are there, Government of India is already careful on this. Maoists have expressed worry in these papers over the decline of their strength."

The Union Home Ministry has alerted the Kerala State Police about the possibility of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) trying to create trouble during the Lok Sabha polls on April 10, reports The Hindu on March 28. Official sources told The Hindu on March 27 that the Ministry had sounded the warning in view of the campaigning hotting up in the State. Armed cadres belonging to the CPI-Maoist had earlier visited various Adivasi colonies in Kannur, Kozhikode, Wayanad, Malappuram and Palakkad at least 50 times after they were first sighted in Kanjirakolly in Kannur District early in 2013.

Senior Security Adviser in the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) K Vijay Kumar while addressing a session on ‘’community policing and internal security’’ organised by Janamaithri Suraksha Project of Kerala State Police in Thiruvananthapuram on November 13 said coordinated efforts of the Centre and State Governments were imperative for tackling the Maoist issue, reports The New Indian Express. He termed the Maoist presence in the Kerala-Tamil Nadu-Karnataka tri-junction as ‘under control.’’ ‘’They are in the propaganda stage and we are stepping up counter-propaganda and preventive action,’’ he added. He said there were no specific reports on insurgents’ presence in urban areas.

Meanwhile, a week after suspected Maoists exchanged fires with members of a Kerala Police commando force in Wayanad District, the Maoists have said on December 14 that they would now target illegal money-lending rackets, reports The Deccan Herald. In an article that appeared on ‘Kaattuthee’ (Wild fire), a mouthpiece news bulletin in Wayanad, the Maoists said Policemen were also aiding illegal moneylenders who have caught farmers, labourers and tribals in a web of debts and forced thousands to commit suicide in the District. The Maoists also termed the State Government’s much-hyped ongoing crackdown on illegal moneylenders – Operation Kubera – a “comical play”. The mouthpiece also published transcripts of a purported telephonic conversation between a Police official at the Vellamunda station and an illegal moneylender where the official tips off the moneylender about an impending raid.

The State Government has informed the Kerala High Court that the presence of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres had been reported from all over the State, especially from the northern Districts of Wayanad, Kozhikode, Malappuram and Kannur during the last one-and-a-half years, reports The Hindu on December 19. In a statement, the Government said that these cadres, who carried arms and ammunition and distributed pamphlets, encouraged the youth to join their organisation to fight the Government. They were visiting colonies such as Chappel, Maradi, Mundel, Kombara, Arimala, and Kunki Chira under the jurisdiction of the Vellamunda Police Station. The State government had taken steps to prevent the illegal activities of the Maoist groups, who were concentrating in the forest area within the Vellamunda Police Station. As part of preventive measures, organised force such as Thunder Bolt and Anti-Naxal Squad were deployed to counter the threat. The statement was filed in response to a writ petition filed by Shyam Balakrishnan of Mattiliyam in Wayanad alleging that he was being harassed by the Police on charges of having Maoist links. He sought a directive to the State government to initiate disciplinary action against the Mananthavadi Deputy Superintendent of Police (DySP) and the Sub-Inspector attached to the Vellamunda Police Station.

Kerala Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala has affirmed that the violence that took place in Palakkad and Wayanad District on December 22 was not perpetrated by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), reports kaumudi.com on December 23. “The anti-socials under the guise of Maoists are resorting to such wanton acts for cheap publicity. It is not appreciable to go to houses and offices as early as 3 am or 4 am and hurl stones without any provocation. Such anti-socials will be brought before the law and punished,” he added.

State Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala on December 24, stuck to his assessment that the recent violent incidents in Wayanad and Palakkad Districts were nothing but the handiwork of miscreants posing as Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), reports The Hindu on December 25. Even though the perpetrators of the violent acts had links with Maoist groups, there was nothing revolutionary in the actions. “It is sheer cowardice to indulge in violence in the dead of the night. There is nothing revolutionary about it…. There is no difference in the violence perpetrated by an ordinary anti-social and those who were involved in the recent actions. The media should not glorify such incidents. These are just attempts to create a scare. We will mercilessly put down such people,” the Minister said while addressing a press conference in Thiruvananthapuram District. The Minister said the arrested persons had ties with Maoist groups, which were present in the State. However, they did not pose any threats in the State. Besides, these groups do not have the backing of the people. “Kerala is far ahead in the matter of tribal development when compared to the plight of tribes people in other States. Political parties and successive governments have consistently addressed the problems of the tribal population. The government was moving in the right direction,” he said. In reply to a question, Chennithala said the Police were fully alert. The government was serious about tackling Maoist threats, which were currently being addressed by Special Forces. It was natural to feel that nothing much was happening since it was important for the Police to maintain confidentiality. There were constraints in disclosing the strategies, but the Police have already indentified the roots and stringent action would be taken to suppress them.

Addressing a press meet on December 31, Kerala Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala said that though Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) presence had been identified in some pockets in the Western Ghats region of the State, they were yet to influence the public, including tribesmen, in the areas, reports The Hindu. But they were trying to influence the youths in cities and the two youths who were arrested in connection with an attack in Palakkad were the victims of it, Mr. Chennithala said.The Government had adopted a two-pronged strategy to counter the Maoist menace — strengthening the Police force and improving infrastructure facilities in tribal settlements, Chennithala said. The Government was planning to make a calendar to solve the issues of the tribesmen in a time-bound manner. Police presence would be strengthened wherever Maoist presence had been identified. Three meetings of senior police officials in Kerala, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu had already been held to address the issue. A meeting of Home Ministers of the three States would be convened soon. “Bullet is not the answer to solve the issue. Improving the economic and social conditions of the tribesmen in a time-bound manner are the better means to counter the menace,” the Minister said.
