“The single biggest internal security challenge ever faced by our country” is how the erstwhile Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh described the Naxalite menace. Through The Red Rage, the author tries to trace the history of Indian Naxalism since its inception in the sixties, which resulted in the death and largescale loss of human lives, exceeding 12,000, and loss of property worth millions of rupees during the last two decades. So, what is it–a peoples’ movement or a state of utter neglect on the part of the government or a revolt by the deprived lot of Adivasis and forest dwellers exploited by the Indian corporations with the active connivance of the Indian politicians and dispensation? Read for interesting details and unheard-of revelations; gauge the extent and might of the radical forces of the dominant Naxalite group–the Communist Party of India (Maoist)–a banned organisation, and what the future holds.
