Raipur (thestates.news) |Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai on Tuesday hailed the security forces for a major breakthrough along the Chhattisgarh–Andhra Pradesh border, where a successful counter-insurgency operation led to the neutralization of top Naxal leader and Central Committee member Madvi Hidma, along with six other Naxal operatives. The Chief Minister saluted what he described as the “indomitable courage” of security personnel and called the development a “decisive achievement in the fight against Naxalism.”
Chief Minister Sai reiterated that the neutralization of Madvi Hidma, long regarded as the face of bloodshed, violence, and fear in Bastar, marks not only a tactical victory but a significant blow to the Red terror. He emphasized that this moment strengthens the government’s commitment to restoring lasting peace across the region.
The Chief Minister noted that the past several months have seen a surge in surrenders, arrests of senior Naxal cadres, and a series of successful operations—indicators, he said, that Naxalism is now taking its final breaths.
