The State Government is ready to hold talks with the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) and it would welcome any Maoists who wanted to surrender themselves and join the mainstream of life, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said in Bangalore on June 18, reports The Hindu. In an interaction with the media at his official residence, Siddaramaiah maintained that the Left-wing extremism (LWE) problem was not very serious in Karnataka. Only three or four Districts are affected by this problem, he said. However, his Government was serious in taking up development work in backward regions and forest areas prone to Left-wing extremism. Asked whether Karnataka s stand on the issue was not contrary to the Union government s decision to act tough on Maoists, Siddaramaiah said, This is the stand of [my] Government. We appeal to all those involved in these activities to come forward for a dialogue across the table.
