New Delhi, Oct 7: Days after security forces eliminated 31 Maoists in Chhattisgarh, Union Home Minister Amit Shah will hold a review meeting with the Chief Ministers of eight left-wing extremism-affected states, including Odisha, here on Monday, an official statement said.

Apart from Chief Ministers, the meeting will also be attended by five Union Ministers and senior officials of the Central ministries who are supporting these states in accelerating the development works in the LWE-affected areas. LWE is the acronym for Left-Wing Extremism.
