Born from the brutality of the 1947 Rajouri massacre, where Hindu women chose Balidan and death over capture as Pakistan-backed forces slaughtered thousands, the town survived through sacrifice until its liberation in 1948

How 2025 became the year India finally broke Naxalism as Amit Shah set the March 31, 2026 deadline, Operation Kagar dismantled Maoist leadership, and the Red Corridor collapsed across Chhattisgarh
