Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Goutham Sawang has said that the people alone should pressurise left wing extremists, Naxalites of the People’s War Group (PWG) to the negotiating table to hold talks with the government. He was commenting in the context of statements issued by PWG North Telangana Special Zone committee secretary Jampanna and Warangal district PWG secretary Rama Krishna saying that the PWG was ready to hold talks with the government if police stopped encounters. The DIG added that except for issuing statements in November 2001, the PWG leadership has failed to disclose terms for a dialogue with the government. While indicating that dialogue between the two parties is part of a democratic process, he added that the government "welcomed the change of heart of the Naxalites." He also said that the government was unable to proceed, as the PWG leadership was demanding cessation of firing by the police alone without declaring that they would also lay down arms.

Speaking to the media, Home Minister T Devender Goud said that the government had decided to talk to the PWG and the modalities concerning who should talk to whom and the involvement of a third party would be finalised at another round of meeting with leaders of various political parties after ten days. Terming the government’s decision as an important step, Goud said that a common agenda would be prepared before the leaders of the political parties. "It is not an easy decision. The political parties have discussed the pros and cons of the issue and came to this important conclusion", he said.

On May 7, left-wing extremist Naxalite group, the People’s War Group (PWG), declared a unilateral, one-month cease-fire beginning May 10 in Andhra Pradesh. PWG State Committee Secretary Akkiraju Haragopal alias Ramakrishna, in a statement in Hyderabad said his organisation would not resort to any kind of violence during the cease-fire period. "There would not be any attacks on police, politicians or others during this period", he said. The statement said the PWG took this decision following Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu’s recent accusation that the PWG was not sincere about holding talks with the government. "We had announced a two-month cease-fire earlier but the government betrayed our confidence and killed 12 of our comrades in an alleged encounter at Tupakulagudem in Warangal district", the statement said. It further added, if the government was ready for talks, it would send a group of mediators to fix the agenda for the dialogue. Ramakrishna, however, demanded that the Naxalite leaders participating in the proposed talks with the government be provided free passage to attend the meeting.

Media reports from Andhra Pradesh said the second round of talks between the government emissaries of left-wing extremists, Naxalites of the People’s War Group (PWG), have been held in Hyderabad on June 9, and both sides have resolved meet again. However, the emissaries protested what they called were fake encounters and asked for halting the same. Besides, they had asked for lifting the ban on the PWG and for quashing the list of names of those on who there is a cash reward, all of which they said would make the atmosphere conducive for talsk. But, the government team said the atmosphere was conducive enough. It added, lifting the ban on the PWG, one of the demands raised by the Naxals, was dependent on they giving up their armed struggle, and said, the issue could be discussed during the mail course of discussions that are expected to follow. On operations against Naxals, the government said it was part of its law and order maintenance functions.

Representatives of left-wing extremist group, Naxalites the People’s War Group (PWG), who are holding discussions with the State government for finalising the modalities of talks proposed to be held with the PWG have urged the people to think which side was making ‘unrealistic’ demands during the ongoing process. In a statement issued in Hyderabad on June 19, the PWG representatives— P. Varavara Rao and Gaddar—said it was the government that put forth an ‘unrealistic' demand of giving up armed struggle even before the modalities were finalised. The statement asserted that, while there had been at least 10 unnatural deaths at the hands of police in the form of encounters, lock-up deaths and torture during the last 40 days, there was no violence from the PWG side. It referred to all the incidents during the cease-fire period beginning May 10 and said, though the PWG was strictly adhering to its announcement, the government was continuing its operations.

Responding to the CPI-M call for talks, the PWG, in a statement on July 16, said though the party was not averse to talks, it would have to be conditional. As a pre-condition, the statement said, instead of violent methods "the battle for winning the masses must be political". It also demanded that all CPI-M leaders, particularly in Midnapore, Bankura and Purulia, "must lay down their arms". Also, public meetings must be allowed in villages. Admitting that it was working jointly with the MCC in Midnapore, Bankura and Purulia, the statement said, "Both parties have witnessed three decades of repression in other states and continued to grow. The same will happen in West Bengal."

Andhra Pradesh police have lunched a massive manhunt in the State to locate the four police personnel abducted by left-wing extremists—Naxalites—of the People’s War Group (PWG) from the Anakapalli police station, Vishakhapatnam district, on August 23. Before abducting the police personnel, the Naxals also blasted in Anakapalli and Chodavaram police stations and the adjoining treasury office at the second place and decamped with at least 15 rifles from the police station and cash from the treasury. While State police chief P Ramulu held a review meeting to assess the latest situation on August 25, senior police and intelligence officials are camping in Visakhapatnam to monitor the situation in north Coastal Andhra. Media reports said, following instructions from Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, Ramulu has ordered the formation of 20 special teams to conduct combing operations in the suspected areas. The police have also reportedly sought assistance from the bordering States––Orissa, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh––to carry out similar combing operations in border areas. The police are also consulting civil rights groups to seek their involvement in securing the release of the abducted police personnel. Official sources indicated, with peace talks between the State government and the PWG failing, cadres of the PWG’s Andhra-Orissa Special Border Zone stepped up action against police and suspected police informers. This was to establish ‘liberated and red zones’, as was dome in the adjoining Dandkaranya region, official sources added. With police in Visakhapatnam, Vizianagaram and Srikakulam districts concentrating their anti-Naxalite drive in agency areas, the Naxalites reportedly changed their strategy to strike terror in the plains for the first time, resulting in the August 23-incident.

In an interview to a national daily, in Hyderabad, on August 31, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu ruled out declaring cease-fire with left-wing extremists—Naxalites of the People’s War Group (PWG) as a precondition to resume talks with the Naxals. He made it clear that maintenance of law and order was a Constitutional responsibility that his government would never ignore. He said people would question the government if it allowed the Naxalites to have a free run of the State in the name of talks. A cease-fire during the recent peace process would have only strengthened the PWG, which had already started to indulge in extortion in some Telangana districts.

Speaking to the media in New Delhi on September 15, Vara Vara Rao, revolutionary poet and Naxalite-sympathiser, said left-wing extremist—Naxalite—group, the People’s War Group (PWG) has not closed doors on talks, despite the recent failure of efforts to open a dialogue with the government of Andhra Pradesh. Rao, who was an emissary of the PWG in the preliminary talks with the government, regretted that the government was not at all sincere about ending the politics of encounters and killings, believing largely that the PWG’s decision to commence negotiations was driven out of a weakening of their movement. On the contrary, he said, the movement was fast spreading to almost the entire forest areas of Andhra Pradesh with the exception of perhaps Krishna and East Godavari districts.
