The insurgency\u2019s leadership has also struggled, analysts say, in the face of targeted operations, old age and illness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Home Ministry told Parliament last year that the threat of leftist extremism had dropped significantly in recent years, in terms of the number of deaths as well as the amount of affected territory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Deaths of civilians and security forces related to the insurgency in 2023 were 86 percent lower than at their peak in 2010, the ministry said, adding that the number of districts affected by the violence had shrunk to 38 from 126.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p

other problems.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He also said they were concentrated their activities in several districts around the Abujhmad forest, including Bijapur, after suffering losses over the years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe Maoists are at their weakest point, largely because they have lost a lot of their territory,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside
