Chhattisgarh approves mechanism for surrendered Naxals' criminal cases

The Chhattisgarh cabinet has approved a mechanism for managing criminal cases involving surrendered Naxalites. The framework involves district-level committees and a cabinet sub-committee tasked with reviewing cases for potential withdrawal, contingent on adherence to due legal process.

The approval was granted in December of the previous year. The structured approach aims to facilitate the rehabilitation of former militants who have laid down arms while maintaining legal safeguards and procedural oversight.
