Jagdalpur, 08 March (Hindustan Reporter). While sharing her life experience with Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai in a discussion program with Bastar Fighters and Danteshwari Fighters in Javanga, Dantewada on the occasion of International Women's Day, Rajkumari said that she was fed up with Naxal ideology and decided to become a police commando. Sumitra told that she herself was a Naxalite at one time, I soon realized my mistake and hence I surrendered.
Rajkumari told that she was engaged at the age of 17, she did not want to get married, hence joined the Naxalite group. Rajkumari said that she soon started losing her terrorist ideology because while living with them, she had to repeatedly face insecurity and lack of food. I along with three of my friends planned to escape from the Naxalite group, because I had seen how a girl was killed for refusing to marry a Naxalite. I ran away and surrendered before the police. Taking advantage of the surrender policy, I am now a police commando, later my three companions also ran away.
Sumitra, who left the path of Naxalism and got a job in the police, told that at one time she herself was a Naxalite. A reward of Rs 5 lakh was declared on me. I was active in Naxalite activities from 2004 to 2018. It was during this time that I realized the hollowness of Naxalite ideology. Due to the good policy of the government and the efforts of the police, I understood that the surrender policy of the government is very welfare, so finally I surrendered and as per the surrender policy, I got a job in the police.
Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai, after listening to Rajkumari and Sumitra, said that I salute both of you. You did not lose your courage even in difficult circumstances. The Chief Minister told Rajkumari that you became a Naxalite only because you did not want to get married at a young age. It is unfortunate that the evil practice of child marriage continues in the society even today. This will not happen now. Our government has decided to launch a campaign to completely eradicate the evil practice of child marriage from Chhattisgarh.
Chief Minister Shri Sai told Sumitra that you roamed the jungles as a Naxalite for 15 years and now you are in the police, rather you are a Danteshwari fighter. I often hear that in the Naxalite organization, women are not allowed to live a normal married life, they are forcibly prevented from conceiving. Despite suffering so much exploitation, the Durga within you, or we can say that Mother Danteshwari, not only maintained but also increased the energy of your femininity, that the energy to become a warrior remained within you even after 15 years, you Danteshwari Fighters. became. I salute your energy. This energy makes women unique. The Chief Minister saluted the courage and dedication of both.
