So some questions, just to compare...
What would you say the foreign influences are? From what sources? Purely influence, or direct assistance?
How does the NGO influence work? Actively encouraging rebellion, or more indirect?
I noticed this item in the cited article:
Would you agree with that? If so, it makes me curious about where the movement gets its money. Pecuniary benefits for a force of 40k+ runs to a fair bit of the ol' pecunia.
Are the Maoists strongest in tribal areas? In particular, are they strongest in tribal areas where administrative and government posts are predominantly controlled by non-tribals?
