India's Maoist guerillas surrender after fifty year struggle

from Late Night Live - Separate stories podcast · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

In the 1960s when counter-culture and unrest was peaking around the world, India's left-wing protest movement took the form of a group of militant Maoists, determined to bring an end to capitalism in the wake of British rule and partition. Now after more fifty years the Maoist insurgency has finally surrendered, and the surviving leaders have issued an historic public apology to India’s people for their long reign of violence. Guest: Rahul Pandita,  journalist and author of “Hello, Bastar: The Untold Story of India’s Maoist Movement.” Producer: Catherine Zengerer
