Hello people, does anyone know a one-stop, objective source on the naxal insurgency and state efforts to curb it? Looking to understand the while timeline of events, not necessarily the ideology of the movement.

@whatonly Maybe not as exhaustive as you'd prefer (?), but:

This article here focuses on history of the movement with a lot of details: A historical introduction to Naxalism in India :: EFSAS

@nerdfighter Interesting. A lot of TIL Today I Learned for me :P

Basically they’re implying state sponsored militias act as roving bandits, as opposed to Maoists who act as stationary bandits. And so they are by consequence much worse for the people. 

Never thought about it this way. 😅

@whatonly  A good source to build a basic framework for Naxalism. In fact, I's suggest everyone check out Only IAS's GS Mains material. They have given a broad outline and necessary timeline, structures etc for the topics. A great enabler in starting any GS mains topic prep. Nuances and intellectual depth can be added to them but the basic structure they offer is good enough.

I am referring it for society world history. Having gone through Udaan I opted for it.. 

Will you refer it for ethics and others.. These guys are coming with psir bulletins and good mindmaps. 

Although I am skeptical for their psir material

I went through the PSIR material last year, it’s pretty good if you need it only to fill in a few topics.

I am planning to look for all the GS portions. They are offering a basic structure of sorts, which I need badly. My answers tend to go haywire. A fixed structure of timeline, events, govt. interventions and way ahead could surely bring some control. Additions are a must though.

Others : Le me make my own memes. I'll impress the world. 

Whatonly : I am too busy . I have to read about Left wing extremism. Le me take a shortcut- takes some other meme, do related changes, and then post them on forum.  And then with this become an independent candidate for PM's post( in the memes world) :)
