Meanwhile, two days after extending an olive branch to Maoists, Home Minister P Chidambaram has said that he will not allow an armed revolution to succeed in India till his last breath.
"Till my last blood is there in my life, I will not allow armed revolution or terrorism and violence to overtake us in India," he told a public meeting in Madurai on Saturday.
Chidambaram said both Congress and BJP governments at the Centre had "underestimated" the Naxalites for the last 10 to 13 years. "Now they (Naxalites) are trying to create problems in the country with arms in their hands. They are not going to succeed in this," he said.
At the same time, he said the Centre is ready to have dialogue with them provided they abjure violence. The Home Minister said the "Naxalites are our own countrymen and not enemies like Pakistani terrorists".
