Union Home Minister Amit Shah has inaugurated the first security camp-turned-public service centre in Bastar, Chhattisgarh.

This marks an important shift as the state moves from decades of Naxal violence to development. Seventy camps will be transformed into 'Seva camps' to provide government services and skill training to locals.

The initiative is part of a larger effort to ensure that Maoism does not return to the region, leveraging development as a preventive measure. Shah emphasized the symbolic importance of open communication between the state government and its people.
