When I asked the sister the same question, she said, “No, we never had any problems with them (the Naxalites). Maybe, we are not in “The Corridor”. But even if we were in their area, why would there be any problems? We, these women in the SHGs, have often achieved the same aims, like fair disbursal of money from government schemes, social justice in a caste-ridden village, through more peaceful means.” She thought about it, and then added, “we do have problems of wild elephants, though.”
