New Delhi, September 20: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday appealed to Naxals to give up violence, lay down arms and surrender, saying an all-out operation will otherwise be carried out against them. Addressing 55 victims of Naxal violence from Chhattisgarh at his residence here, Shah also said that Maoists will take their last breath on March 31, 2026.

He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has decided that Naxal violence and ideology will be wiped out from the country. "I appeal to Naxals to give up violence, lay down arms and surrender as the militants in the northeast have done. If you do not listen, then an all-out operation will be carried out soon to end the menace," Shah said. Amit Shah’s Jharkhand Visit: Union Home Minister To Unveil BJP’s ‘Parivartan Yatra’, Review Poll Preparations in State; Prohibitory Order Issued in Ranchi Due to Top Leader’s Visit.

The Union home minister said security forces have achieved significant success in their operations against Maoists as the problem is now confined to just four districts of Chhattisgarh.
