Evidence found on a second Indian activist’s computer was planted, report says
This story was close to my heart. 
Having grown with naxalite-maoist ideals, I used to rever them.<p>During 1940-1990s
Moaists did an phenomenal job in fighting for oppressed, they were solely responsible for minimum wage enforcement, stopping the exploitation of tribals.<p>They fought off razakars with armed guerilla groups and saved innocent women from getting raped and mutilated.<p>Post 1990s,
The land reforms, abolition of feudal landlord system, employment creation actually solved most of the problems the poor were facing.
Migration of people to urban areas increased. 
Thus, The maoists lost their purpose, and started searching for monsters to fight.<p>Post 1990, 
maoists are bunch of thugs living in forests
doing contract killings in their free time.
They claim to fight for poor, but they oppose anything that bring out poor tribal people out of their poverty.
In the last 10 years there were hunderds of incidents of maoists killing contractors laying roads to remote villages fearing the tribals will be out of their grip.<p>Hence I have zero sympathies for these 'activists' aka hired thugs.
