Peddabodkel village in Sukma district is experiencing a new era of security and development with the recent inauguration of a CRPF camp. Known for its historical Naxalite influence, the area is now seeing tangible benefits including advanced healthcare, improved infrastructure, and comprehensive government welfare, changing the lives of its residents.
The CRPF camp, opened on December 10, represents the first government foothold in a region that long resisted official presence. Residents now have access to essential services such as medical care, road connectivity, electricity, and clean water, aligning with the government's mission to integrate Peddabodkel into mainstream society.
The presence of the CRPF has instilled confidence among the villagers, reducing the fear previously imposed by Naxalite influence. Medical services are particularly impactful, with the camp's healthcare facilities reducing the two-hour journey villagers previously made for treatment. With growing trust and an atmosphere of safety, development in the area continues to accelerate.
