There has been a 65 per cent fall in incidents of terrorism, Left Wing Extremism and insurgency in the Northeast, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Saturday. He also asserted that the country’s “three hotspots— LWE (Left Wing Extremism-hit states), the Northeast and Jammu and Kashmir—are becoming peaceful.”
The Narendra Modi government has made strict laws while maintaining a zero-tolerance policy against terrorism, the home minister told a gathering after paying homage to martyrs on Police Commemoration Day at the National Police Memorial here. “There has been a 65 per cent fall in terror, Left Wing Extremism and insurgency incidents in the Northeast from their peak levels in the last decade due to the efforts and achievements of brave police personnel,” Shah said.
