- At the Red Fort on August 15, Modi said armed Naxalism had weakened, but a “Naxal mentality” remained a threat.
- Chidambaram said on X on August 16 that he was proud to be a “Dimaagi Naxal”; Moitra echoed him.
- Kejriwal also adopted the label, arguing that critics seeking a corruption-free system should not be called Naxals.
- BJP representatives rejected that interpretation, saying the term targeted ideological Maoist supporters rather than opposition politicians.
