Political dilemma in Jangalmahal area: A historical perspective

Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the causes of political instability in the Jangalmahal territories. I have tried to find out why this region has become turbulent again and again. Why is this trend still not ending? I have tried to find out the root causes of the spread of Naxalite / Maoist activities in this region. This Maoist tendency is also affecting the recent electoral politics to a great extent. In fact, the perpetual poverty of the people living here is one of the main causes of unrest in this area. The uneducated and poverty-stricken tribal society here dreams of a better society under the Maoist/Naxalite ideology.
