Expressing profound concern, Governor Radda painted a grim picture of the current state of affairs, characterizing banditry as a thriving enterprise that has entrenched itself deeply within society. He underscored the pervasive nature of the problem, lamenting the challenges faced in curbing its spread.
Moreover, Governor Radda shed light on the underlying motivations driving individuals to engage in banditry, stressing that the root causes are primarily rooted in socioeconomic disparities rather than political grievances.
