	Naxalite - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Naxalite or Naxalism is an informal name given to revolutionary communist groups that were born out of the Sino-Soviet split in the Indian communist movement.
		Mazumdar greatly admired Mao Zedong of China and advocated that Indian peasants and lower classes must follow in his footsteps and overthrow the government and upper classes whom he held responsible for their plight.
		After the internal revolt led by Satyanarayan Singh in 1971 and the death of Mazumdar in 1972, the movement was fragmented into many competing factions.

	Primer: Who are the Naxalites? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The criticism against the Naxalites is that despite their ideology, they have over the years become just another terrorist outfit, extorting money from middle-level landowners (since rich landowners invariably buy protection), and worse, even extorting and dominating the lives of the Adivasis and villagers who they claim to represent in the name of providing justice.
		Naxalites have also been known to claim 'tax' from the Adivasis and landless farmers in areas where their writ runs more than that of the government.
		Noticeably, when the Naxalite movement first started in the late sixties in West Bengal, it was the CPI-M that cracked down hardest on the Maoist rebels, with ample support from the Congress at the Centre.

		Supporters of the Naxalites counter this by saying that they have been forced to resort to violence because they are not heard otherwise.

		Naxalites well-publicised aim is to seize power through force of arms and enforce the ideas and beliefs of a small minority on the rest of the population.
		So leaders in power do not set a good precedent when they keep repeating clichés like ‘naxalites are our brothers, we should show tolerance to them’ even while policemen are dying in the fight against them, as a part of the political strategy to win some bye-election or a section of the vote bank.

		Through the 1990s, Naxalite activities had been largely restricted to the Telangana region of North Andhra Pradesh (10 districts), and overwhelmingly to the four 'heartland' districts of Adilabad, Karimnagar, Warangal and Khammam.
		These seizures are no more than the tip of the iceberg, and there is evidence that the Naxalites have used the entire period of the 'ceasefire' to lay out a network of mines and IEDs for future use on all major routes in the State.
		The sheer scale and spread of Naxalite violence in India (as of the widening spheres of lawlessness due to other factors) is a direct challenge to the country's vaunting pretensions to superpower status, and its ambitious quest for dramatic economic growth and inclusion in the elite club of the world's 'developed countries'.
