A union home ministry official on Friday held a meeting with top police officials of Jharkhand, Bihar, West Bengal and Odisha and discussed plans to curb the Maoist menace in the states.
"The meeting discussed the joint operation in the Maoist-affected states. The Maoists cross the border when operation is launched in one state. The states agreed to that," a police official told IANS.
K. Vijay Kumar, security advisor in the union home ministry, suggested a three-point strategy to deal with the Maoist menace, he said.
