In a significant step towards the rehabilitation of surrendered Naxalites, the Gadchiroli Police have provided a fresh opportunity to 48 former militants by offering them jobs at the recently established Lloyds Metals Industry in the district.

Gadchiroli's Superintendent of Police (SP) Neelotpal stated that more than 600 Naxalites have surrendered to the police so far. Since the government revised its surrender policy in 2014, efforts have been made to facilitate the integration of surrendered Naxals into society. The government has been providing financial assistance and land for their rehabilitation, but Gadchiroli Police have taken it a step further by focusing on employment opportunities.
