The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) in a statement on May 6 warned civil society groups, non-governmental organisations, intellectuals and the general public to refrain from supporting the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) ideology as it will attract action under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967, reported The Hindu. It warned that under Section 39 of the Act, "any person who commits the offence of supporting such a terrorist organisation with inter alia intention to further the activities of such groups would be liable to be punished with imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years or with fine or with both." Asking the public not to become a victim of the CPI (Maoist) propaganda, the statement said: "The Communist Party of India (Maoist) and all its formations and front organisations are terrorist organisations whose sole aim is armed overthrow of the Indian state." The Times of India added that the law, Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967, empowers the State to punish those collaborating with a banned organization with imprisonment up to 10 years. Besides, section 39 of the UAPA also provides for fine to be slapped on those found collaborating with extremists.

Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram on May 12 said it was not possible to solve the Naxalite (Left Wing Extremist) problem without regaining the confidence of people and this job had to be done by various sections, report The Hindu. Speaking at a national conference of the Confederation of Indian Industry, he said that even officially only 66 per cent of the funds meant for rural areas had been spent in the Naxal-affected States. Wondering whether development should precede Police action, Chidambaram underscored the difficulties of delivery in areas where the Government could not even enter. The Government would continue with its two-pronged strategy of carrying forward its development effort and a calibrated and controlled Police action in order to assert civilian authority in the affected areas. Chidambaram, however, said it was not possible for the Government alone to tackle the Naxalite problem. He mentioned that civil society would have to play a crucial role in creating awareness of not only the Naxal menace but also the benefits of the development process and the action that were being initiated.

President had asked the Centre to seek an authoritative legal opinion as to whether governors could play a pro-active role in exercising constitutionally mandated discretionary powers in the administration of the Fifth Schedule areas without being bound by the advice of state Governments.
