How would you define your authority on the subject matter of your book?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans-<\/strong>\u00a0I have served many years in Naxal affected region of India, during service i realise threat, security and problems\u2019 of local residents of that region and decided to write this book so that everyone can understand about the biggest internal security challenges of India and whole world community to know struggles and sacrifices of security forces, administration and common citizens.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q2. What is the most interesting thing about this book?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans-<\/strong>\u00a0The most interesting and attractive thing is that the world wide journalists, litterateur, reporters working in ground ZERO, local journalists, social activists, environmentalists, \u00a0active &amp; surrendered Naxalites thoughts are also added in this book their views, as it is on the issue.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>The most highlight aspect of this book is as below-<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Migration of tribes from Bastar, Chhattisgarh state of India.<\/li>\n<li>Migration problem of under construction POLAWARAM DAM which is situated at adjoining areas in Chattisgarh, Telangana &amp; Odisha state of India.<\/li>\n<li>Industrialization of HUSHDEV FOREST, as it\u00a0is a burning\u00a0issue of local\u00a0residents\u00a0of that area i.e Chhattisgarh state of India.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One more interesting thing is that the above content was the same as described by many independent writers.

What inspired you to write this book?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans-<\/strong>\u00a0I am\u00a0an eye witness\u00a0to many of the\u00a0biggest Naxal incidents, encounters and critical Law &amp; Order\u00a0situations in Naxal infested area of the whole country. In that connection\u00a0I have\u00a0written two books, one is in Hindi language and this book is in English language to\u00a0bring\u00a0out the factual\u00a0situation of that region to the Indian readers as well as world community.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q4.

Can you share one key concept from the book?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans-<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cThe book consisted of problems of villagers, police and administration and their shortcomings. In the course of actions, I realized that the work previously done to tackle the Naxalite problem, seems to be inappropriate, one-sided, idealized and seems less practical. Somewhere the implementation in practice is difficult and the possible realistic solution is brought up in this book. Ever since the Naxalite problem has arisen in India, it has been ignored since then that\u2019s why its expansion increased about 16 states of India, now Chhattisgarh state is its epicentre, This book is based on author\u2019s live experience as security force personnel as well as being a citizen of Chhattisgarh state.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The book having many contents, interview of many dignitaries, historic uprising of CPI (Maoist) in India, The book also containing with full description of Indian socio-economic, caste-community issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q6.
