Singh pointed out that the movement was strongest in underdeveloped parts of the country, and that military and police action to combat the threat would have to be complemented by a spate of development schemes. On 7 October, while speaking at a <keyword id="76600" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Central-Reserve-Police-Force">Central Reserve Police Force</keyword> (CRPF) event in Lucknow, India’s home minister, Rajnath Singh, said that left-wing extremism would be wiped out within two to three years. He explained that left-wing insurgency movements were on the decline owing in part to the efforts of the Indian paramilitary forces. In 2015, the current BJP-led administration launched the ‘National Policy and Action Plan’, which was aimed at curtailing the operations of left wing radicals. The programme involved a greater military presence and higher funding for police forces in districts most affected by Naxal attacks. It also include a targeted investment in schools, hospitals, roads and telecommunications networks in these regions. . In the years since the plan was implemented, the number of districts affected by Naxalism has declined considerably. As per <a href="http://pib.nic.in/newsite/PrintRelease.aspx?relid=178704">estimates</a> from the Ministry of Home Affairs in April 2018, the number of affected districts had fallen from 126 in 2017 to 90, while the number of worst-affected districts had declined from 36 to 30. Last week, Singh said that the movement had been further reduced to <a href="https://www.livemint.com/Politics/aW1zo9iwHOKwxEuLg6qE0J/Urban-naxals-wont-be-tolerated-says-Rajnath-Singh.html">around 50</a> districts as the government’s two-pronged strategy - emphasising military action and development- was bearing fruit. . The worst-affected districts are in the states of Bihar, Jharkhand, <keyword id="43945" type="LOCATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Chhattisgarh">Chhattisgarh</keyword> and Odisha. The government in Chhattisgarh, in particular, will be on high-alert ahead of elections to the state legislature in November.

Seeded in 2018 during the National Conference for Women in Police, the move aims to create better work conditions for ‘mahila battalions’ in the CRPF (Central Reserve Police Force). The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has allocated ₹21 million to its ‘gender sensitive’ budget. It aims to install nearly 288 pad vending machines and an equal number of disposal units for sanitary napkins. As many as 8,000 women are a part of India’s <keyword id="64987" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Paramilitary-forces">paramilitary forces</keyword>. In fact, the CRPF will also install nearly 800 steel stands for drying clothes, especially for the women personnel. The Home Ministry estimates a cumulative cost of nearly ₹300,000 for each sanitary pad vending machine, disposal unit and drying stand. “The sanction will help the force in ensuring better living and operating conditions for the over 8,000 women personnel who are in combat,” the ministry noted in the official sanction orders. The Defence Research and Development Organisation(DRDO) and CRPF also have plans to introduce women protectors for women in the battalion. Overall, the CRPF has over <a href="http://www.newindianexpress.com/nation/2019/jul/21/in-a-first-crpf-to-install-sanitary-pad-dispensers-for-women-in-combat-2007290.html">300,000 personnel</a>, including several employed in conflicted or naxal areas of the country such as Jammu and Kashmir. The ministry also said that the same will be used in other Indian forces as well. The idea to create a work environment for women in ‘Khaki’ was originated on the sidelines of a study on the issues of health, privacy and challenges faced by women personnel at workplace. The study was conducted by Renuka Mishra, IPS officer and additional director general (ADG) in Uttar Pradesh. The survey painted a dismal picture of women in police forces and highlighted their struggles to keep up with their jobs. Some of them carry on without drinking water so as to avoid urination as workplaces lack basic necessities. In fact, the women personnel dispose used napkins in a pit. "The women personnel said it was difficult for them to dry their inner wear due to lack of facilities. Clothes remain damp as they did not dry due to lack of sunlight, and led to urinary tract infections in women," Mishra told news agency PTI.
