New Delhi: Two days after India's Home Secretary G K Pillai said that the Maoists plan to overthrow the Indian government by the middle of the 21st century; the Maoists have confirmed his fears.
However, the Maoists insist that they plan to overthrow it much before the 2050-60 timeline as predicted by Pillai.
"We will overthrow the Indian government much before 2050," Kishenji told PTI from an undisclosed location.
Kishenji also denied the involvement of former army officers in their operations and insisted that the Maoists do not need any help from army officers.
"We don't need the support of any army man. For the last 30 years, we know the type of war we do better than any military officer,"
He said the Maoists had offered a 72-day peace offer and "the question of regrouping does not arise."
He said it was for the Centre to act on the peace offer.
"We are fully prepared for a long-term revolution against the government and so we don't need any specific time to restructure ourselves."
He blamed the Union Home Minister P Chidambaram of trying to divert the attention of the people from the real problem.
