Bilaspur: Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh today appealed to Maoists to shun violence and join peace talks, saying if they give up arms, government is ready to discuss all their demands.
Addressing a 'Vikash Parv' rally on the completion of two years of the Modi government, Mr Singh said there is no place for violence in India as people in the country don't accept it.
"I want to appeal to Naxals to shun violence as there is no place for violence in India. Let's come for talks. We are ready for talks and discuss all issues if you give up violence," he said.
"You may follow a different ideology but that does not mean that you will kill innocent," he said.
"Our border is fully protected. Earlier terrorists could easily sneak into the country. Now that is not possible," he said.
