With the establishment of Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Education City, children in Dantewada now have access to world class educational institutions from class 1 to graduation. The Astha Vidya Mandir at the Education City is a residential CBSE school providing free of cost education to children affected by naxalite violence; similarly, Saksham provides free of cost, barrier – free education to Divyang children. Some initiatives in Dantewada such as the cashless – enabled village Palnar awarded the prestigious Prime Minister’s Award for Excellence in Public Administration, the Danteshwari e – rickshaw service run by women SHGs, kadaknath poultry rearing by farmers and women have gained national and international repute. Other initiatives such as Padhe Dantewada, Likhe Dantewada, a freely accessible online portal tracking educational outcomes and health indicators of all children enrolled in Government schools in the district, have been awarded the National Awards for e – Governance. Dantewada has shown immense improvements in various indicators of health, education, nutrition and agriculture in the past several years with continuous support from the Central and State Governments; from earlier being known as a hotbed of naxalite violence, Dantewada has now become a hub of innovation which focuses on improving livelihoods of its citizens and linking them to sustainable, self – reliant sources of income. Women are now running mini rice mills, farmers are supplementing incomes by apiculture, and solar Iron Removal Plants are now providing clean drinking water to villages. YUVA, one of the largest rural BPOs in the country, has been setup with the aim of providing private sector, white – collar employment to over 1000 youth from Bastar Division. The district action plan, Sankalp se Siddhi 2018 – 22 has focussed on building up on these previous achievements and further improving the lives of people with the aim of transforming this aspirational district by 2022. The focus in this plan has been on various basic areas of improvements such as education, health, agriculture, transportation, sanitation, providing clean drinking water, skill development, employment generation and on increasing digital literacy. The district action plan has been made after intense discussions with people, people’s representatives and Government officials to understand the needs and aspirations of citizens and to mould these discussions into an achievable, actionable plan. Saurabh Kumar, IAS Collector and District Magistrate, District Dakshin Bastar Dantewada 3 | P a g e DAP Creation – The Process Consultations were held with public and public representatives, in the presence of various district and block level officials, to better assess the needs and potential for development in the district.

    Residential Schools for Children in LWE-Affected Areas of Chhattisgarh

    EDUCATION 2.3 Pota Cabins: Residential schools for children in LWE-affected areas of Chhattisgarh Pota Cabins is an innovative educational initiative for building schools with impermanent materials like bamboo and plywood in Chhattisgarh. The initiative has helped reduce the number of out-of-school children and improve enrolment and retention of children since its introduction in 2011. The number of out-of-school children in the 6-14 years age group reduced from 21,816 to 5,780 as the number of Pota Cabins rose from 17 to 43 within a year of the initiative. These residential schools help ensure continuity of education from primary to middle-class levels in Left Wing Extremism affected villages of Dantewada district, by providing children and their families a safe zone where they can continue their education in an environment free of fear and instability. Rationale Secondly, it would also draw children away from the remote and interior areas of villages that are more prone to Left Wing Extremists violence. As these schools are perceived The status of education in Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh as places where children can receive adequate food and was abysmal. As per a 2005 report, the literacy rate of the education, they are often referred to Potacabins locally, as state stood at 30.2% against the state average of 64.7%.1 ‘pota’ means ‘stomach’ in the local Gondi language. The development deficit in the Dakshin Bastar area, which includes Dantewada district, has been largely attributed to the remoteness of villages, lack of proper infrastructure Objectives such as roads and bridges, and weak penetration of communication technology.

    Sustainable Agriculture – A New Partnership Paradigm in Dantewada Harsh Jaiswal, TERI University 1. Heralding Green Revolution in Independent India Upon breaking the shackles of colonisation in 1947, India was plagued with starvation and famine in several parts of the country. As a young independent nation, agricultural production wasn’t sufficient for the growing population. Several causes have been attributed to this glaring gap between supply and demand. Lack of modernisation in the agriculture sector and the prevalence of primitive methods of farming were attributed as the major cause. In the early 1960s, the Green Revolution (henceforth, GR) was pedestaled as the saviour of India’s farmers and food deficient people. This involved the use of chemical fertilizers, irrigation infrastructure, and high yielding variety (HYVs). GR promised to tackle chronic food deficit by increasing yield and making the country self-sufficient in food grain production. These developments were supported with institutional interventions like Minimum Support Price (MSP) protocol, subsidies on chemical fertilizers, improvement in rural infrastructure, and so on. 1.1 Contestations on Green Revolution However, the critical appraisal on GR highlights some of the major problems in the technical interventions with serious environmental and economic consequences. “However the assumption of nature as a source of scarcity, and technology as a source of abundance, leads to the creation of technologies which create new scarcities in nature through ecological destruction. The reduction in the availability of fertile land and genetic diversity of crops as a result of the Green Revolution practices indicates that at the ecological level , the Green Revolution produced scarcity, not abundance” (Shiva, 1991) Evidence suggests that the Indian states of Punjab, Haryana, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, and Andhra Pradesh are currently reaping the repercussions of GR.

    Naxalism: the Maoist Challenge to the Indian State

    Naxalism: The Maoist Challenge to the Indian State Written by Lennart Bendfeldt, HBF intern, July 2010 Abstract The Naxalite armed movement challenges the Indian state since more than 40 years. It is based on Maoist ideology and gains its strength through mobilizing the poor, underprivileged, discouraged and marginalized, especially in rural India. The Naxalite movements are a serious threat for the Indian State: They are now active in 223 districts in 20 states and the strength of their armed cadres is estimated between 10.000 and 20.000. Due to the Naxalite’s control over certain areas and their armed fight against the state security forces, they are challenging the inherent ideals of the state, namely sovereignty and monopoly on the use of force. In order to correspond with its ideal, the state focuses on the re-establishment of law and order by encountering the Naxalites violently. However, the movement’s roots are located within India’s numerous social and economic inequalities as well as in environmental degradation. Without fostering the root causes the state will not be able to solve the problem. This paper is divided into three parts and tries to give an extensive overview of the complex issue of the Naxalite conflict. Therefore the first part deals with the history of the movement by describing its origin and development until today. Part two deals with the strategy and actions of the Naxalites and sets its focus on the root causes. The final third part covers the state’s responses and the limitations of the state in the embattled regions.
