Rising Maoists Insurgency in India p2/6

India is divided in many ways: by caste, religion, language, and region. But recently it has become to look as though the most visible divide in the days ahead will be marked by the Maoists movement, which according to media reports, has spread to nearly 40% of the country's geographical area and is a major political force in poor tribal states such as Chhattisgarh, Jharkand and Orissa. Naxalites control 92,000 square kilometers of the country, and the "red corridor" runs along some of India's poorest parts and through areas inhabited mainly by tribal peoples, according to the media sources. Considering this, analysts have suggested that the army should take over security in some of the Maoists affected regions before it spills over other regions.
