He stressed that, unlike the “scattered approach” of previous regimes, the government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been following “unified and ruthless” strategy against violence since 2014, while offering rehabilitation to those who gave up and ensured development in the affected areas. “We don’t want to be a bloodstand.
