The silence of Communist leaders on Maoist massacres is not just hypocrisy—it is complicity.
By Lalit Shastri

A Deafening Silence in the Face of Red Terror
Once again, Communist leaders have taken to pen and paper—writing to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, pontificating on justice, democracy, and human rights. But before their sanctimonious letter is held up as a moral compass, a direct question must pierce the veil of their selective conscience:
How many such letters have they written when Maoists butchered our jawans, assassinated political leaders, and left trails of blood across tribal India?

“When were the letters of outrage after Maoists planted landmines and turned security convoys into funeral processions?”
The 2013 Massacre: Silence Was Their Statement
Let us recall the savage ambush of May 25, 2013, when Maoists massacred 27 people in Chhattisgarh—including Congress state president Nandkumar Patel, his son, tribal leader Mahendra Karma, and Congress senior Vidya Charan Shukla. The brutality of that attack stunned the nation. But not a word of protest emerged from the same Communist leadership that now sermonises on state excesses.
“Maoists didn’t just kill leaders—they declared war on India’s democratic soul. The Left watched in silence.”
Mine Blasts and Mass Graves: A History of Murder

For over two decades, Maoists have orchestrated a reign of terror through devastating landmine blasts and ambushes that have claimed hundreds of lives—from jawans of the CRPF and state police to forest officers and elected village heads.
Where were the open letters then? Where was the demand for justice for those whose bodies were mutilated in Dantewada, Sukma, Bastar, or Gadchiroli?
“The trail of red terror runs deep, and yet the Left turns a blind eye—unless it serves their political purpose.”
The Weaponised Support System: Villagers by Day, Operatives by Design
The Maoists are not isolated guerrillas in the jungle. They are backed by a sinister ecosystem of hardened urban ideologues and rural collaborators—individuals who live as ordinary villagers but assist in hiding weapons, scouting terrain, and facilitating ambushes against security forces.
When these enablers are arrested based on hard intelligence, Communist leaders cry hoarse about civil liberties and ‘democratic suppression.’
“This is not dissent. This is subversion. Shielding the Maoist network is shielding terror.”
The Tribals Want Freedom—From Maoists
The real tragedy lies with the tribals of India, who have borne the brunt of Maoist tyranny. They are threatened, tortured, and killed if they defy Maoist orders. Women are abducted, children brainwashed, and communities paralysed with fear.
These are not protectors of the oppressed—they are predators cloaked in ideology.
“Maoists silence tribal voices with bullets, and the Communist leadership silences its own conscience with complicity.”
A War of Morality, Not Just Security

This fight is not just about internal security—it is about calling out the dangerous duplicity of those who glorify Maoist violence as revolution, while damning the Indian state for trying to restore peace.
Prime Minister Modi must not be distracted by this orchestrated noise. The nation stands firmly behind its security forces, its tribal citizens, and its constitutional right to end armed insurrection.
No More Sanctuary for Red Hypocrisy
Let the message ring loud and clear: India will no longer tolerate selective outrage, nor the intellectual camouflage that shields Maoist terror behind a red flag of ideology.
Those who choose silence when soldiers die, and scream when terrorists are held accountable, must be exposed.
This is not just about national security—it is about national truth.
“You cannot condemn the State for defending itself while ignoring those who kill in its shadows.”
