I have ordered Minister of State (MoS) Hansraj Ahir to reach Chhattisgarh. I will try to talk to Chhattisgarh, Chief Minister, Raman Singh and later decide whether I should go to Chhattisgarh or not. Naxals are creating hurdles in the development works. The Maoists are depriving poor from accessing facilities created by government," said Rajnath Singh.
