Kolkata, Nov 16: Talking tough after fresh Naxal violence in West Bengal, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today said Maoists were more dangerous than terrorists and warned that her government would not remain a mute spectator.
The Trinamool leader also hit out at the Maoists saying they cannot talk peace and kill people. Mamata’s warning came a day after the Maoists offered to extend their unilateral ceasefire offer by four months if the operation by Joint Forces was kept suspended for the same period.
“You cannot talk peace and kill people. We cannot sit back and watch. We have to maintain law and order. We cannot suck our fingers when the killings go on,” she said, adding Maoists were more dangerous than terrorists.
Mamata, however, said, “I still feel good sense will prevail on them and they will come back to the mainstream. If they come to the mainstream, the state government will take responsibility. It is a duty of the government to give protection to people.”
