The visit of Union Home Minister Amit Shah to Chhattisgarh for the Bastar Dussehra has been finalized. He is anticipated to participate in the Dussehra program on October 4th and to visit the Muria Darbar. Administrative arrangements are already in progress at the Lal Bagh मैदान in Jagdalpur in preparation for Amit Shah’s visit. A key aspect of the visit involves potential meetings: with surrendered Naxalites and with officers and personnel involved in the anti-Naxal operations. This has prompted increased vigilance from the administration. Amit Shah’s visit is considered particularly important, especially considering the current developments on the Naxal front. He is likely to engage with the security forces stationed in the area and also interact with former Naxalites to gain insights into their transition from their previous lives to their current ones. Additionally, he plans to meet with residents of the remote areas of the Bastar division. The event will be attended by several dignitaries, including CM Vishnu Deo Sai, Deputy CM Vijay Sharma, Arun Sao, and other senior ministers and members of parliament. The invitation for Amit Shah’s participation in the Bastar Dussehra was presented by Bastar MP and Dussehra Committee Chairman Mahesh Kashyap, during a meeting in Delhi. Shah has confirmed his participation, and preparations are in progress for his visit on October 4th. Specific details regarding his schedule are still emerging, though he has expressed his enthusiasm via social media for attending the festivities, which mark a celebration of peace and freedom from Naxalism in the region.
