“South Asian countries are suffering from internal conflicts. These conflicts are mostly due to the social differences in their societies in the economic as well as social fields. A general pattern has developed in which the people’s war groups are destroying public property and are killing people. There may be some justification in their demands for social justice but it has to be admitted that their method of fighting is violent and  anti-social. This book highlights various PWG activities prevailing in various parts of India like Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, Jammu and North Eastern states and Kashmir. Besides this people’ war groups are fighting in Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh also.” (jacket)
