These were the surrendered Naxals--men and women who once walked the shadowy path of violence as part of the banned outfit.
For years, they roamed around through the forest from one place to another, following the doctrine of the so-called 'Jantana Sarkar', the people's government of the Naxals. Some had joined willingly, drawn by promises of justice and revolution. Others had been coerced, and forced to abandon their homes, dreams, and families. For them, the ideology was not a choice--it was a cage. Over time, disillusionment crept in. The ideals they had clung to began to unravel, revealing the stark reality of their lives.
The constant fear, the endless marches through the wilderness, and the loss of personal freedom weighed heavily on their spirits. One by one, they decided to break free. The path to surrender was fraught with danger--betrayal was met with harsh reprisals--but the hope of a different life pulled them forward. When they finally emerged from the shadows, they were met with a second chance.
