Making a fresh appeal to Maoists to return to the mainstream, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday assured them that her government was trying to solve the problem in a peaceful manner.
Hoping that good sense would ultimately prevail on them, she said, “We want the Maoists to return to mainstream. We don't believe in killing of people, which is an offence. We are trying to solve the problem in a peaceful manner. We still believe that development is a key issue in Jangalmahal.”
“I am getting reports that Maoists were assembling in some areas in Jangalmahal,” she told reporters at the state secretariat.
She also announced a compensation package for civilians killed in Maoists attacks.
Under the compensation package, the state government would provide Rs 2 lakh and the Centre would give Rs 3 lakh to the families of the civilians who fall victims to such attacks.
