Security agencies have planned to identify international linkages of intellectuals connected to Naxalites through analyses of their e-mail network.
In addition, the agencies will undertake data analysis to monitor the activities of urban Naxals, including their foreign travel. For this, teams will be set up for Darknet analysis in Naxal context. Funding of such Naxal activities are also planned to be choked, said a senior official of a key paramilitary engaged in internal security role including anti-Naxal operations.
The Intelligence wings of the police and paramilitary forces will regularly update the format of databases wherein the number of intellectuals whose email networks were analysed and those with international linkages were unearthed as part of the exercise, the official further said.
Apart from the regular States hit by the Naxal problem, the agencies will seek to prevent propagation of Maoist ideology. The agencies will keep tabs on the indoctrination efforts being organised by pro-Naxal; elements in Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka trijunction area, he said.
Re-evaluation of the Naxal surrender policy is also being undertaken to ensure that only genuine ultras avail advantages of the policy. A process for identification of individual beneficiaries in the worst Naxal blocks will be undertaken to provide them the benefits of Government welfare schemes.
Counter-narratives and anti-Naxal ideologies will be disseminated in the affected areas in the local languages through various forms of media like television, print and social media, officials said.
Various police and paramilitary forces are also in the process of constituting teams to undertake study of convicted, surrendered, reformed Naxals as also insurgents in the Northeast and terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir. The teams are expected to scientifically analyse the modus operandi use, means of radicalisation/indoctrination and ways to reintegrate them in the society.
Naxal violence is a major concern in the affected States as disturbances on the law and order front retards development works.
