Naxal presence hits tourism prospects
The Thursday Naxal attack, in which the government inspection bungalow and cafeteria were blown up, indicates that tourism in the area is being affected.
The presence of hardcore Naxal outfits in this area is not a new phenomenon.
He wants to bring the derailed lot in the mainstream, by organising golf tournament, instead of popular games like soccer and volleyball.
We are at the mercy of the god as the police have never been effective in this area. If they can kill the SP in landmine blast, how we can resist them?" asked one Jawahar Singh of Kharagpur village, adding most of the people of this area are yet to see their SP.
Corroborating Jawahar's views, one Sanjay said that the emergence of Naxal outfits in Kharagpur area was the result of police double-standards.
He said police often describe a simple Naxal sympathiser a hardcore extremist. It has sullied the image of the police among the poor villagers.
If the district police are unable to save the existing constructions, how would they ensure the safety of new buildings proposed to be made under the new eco-tourism plan? he asked.
Inspector general of police (Bhagalpur zone) Rajiv Ranjan Verma denied that Thursday's incident was the result of police failure.
"It would be too early to draw such conclusion, as the report of the officials in this connection is still awaited. Due to ongoing panchayat elections, adequate number of forces could not be deployed in that area," he said.
Verma said: "We must have to check the cause first so that the gullible villagers can be saved from lure of the lucre. Then, we won't mind to crush those hardcore extremists, who want to call the shots in this zone."
