Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his Independence Day address, said armed Naxalism was nearing its end but warned against people with a “Naxal mentality”, calling them “dimagi Naxals” and saying they should be “identified and isolated.” Opposition leaders, including Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, criticised the remark and said people raising their voices for their rights are not anti-national.
