‘Your letter reached me yesterday. All 15 of you wish to join the mainstream—make it quick, come by March 2-3 without fears,’ Sharma urged in his message. He tackled their listed concerns head-on, rephrasing ‘surrender’ as honorable ‘rehabilitation.’

Practical hurdles like immediate home returns pose risks amid volatile conditions and missing paperwork. Instead, a comprehensive government program equips them with vocational skills—driving licenses, mobile repair expertise, or literacy basics—to earn respectfully.

Debunking myths about rehab centers, Sharma described them as open campuses with full mobility. Trainees play sports, get medical exams, and even tour Raipur. The 3-4 month stint prepares them until villages are safe.

Legally, a special sub-committee of ministers is sifting through cases to drop prosecutable ones legally. Even jail inmates could get bail, move to centers, and rehabilitate consensually before heading home.

Drawing from triumphs like Satish’s 210-strong group, Kanker’s 21 rehabilitations, and Ramdher Majji’s secure transition, Sharma promised ironclad security. ‘We’ll coordinate with Odisha and Chhattisgarh police to match your expectations fully.’ This initiative signals Chhattisgarh’s aggressive push for peace through empowerment.
