Aren't Naxalites the cause of Telangana's backwardness?

Only people that don't understand or like to conveniently ignore historical facts would ask such questions. Naxals aren't the cause of Telangana backwardness. They are an effect of Telangana backwardness. Naxals came up in Telangana due to this region has been subject to continues neglect and systematic theft of its resources.
If Naxals are the reason, then districts where Naxals activity is less should be more developed than those with strong Naxals presence. Then why is it that Mahabubnagar where naxals presence was low is further behind Naxals strong holds of Karimnagar, Warangal and Nizamabad?
Similarly, why is Vizag one of the important centers of Naxals activity is a flourishing industrial center not just in state but also in the country?
How is the Kothagudem thermal station which is in the middle of forested area able to complete its expansion under the schedule?
How is National thermal electric center in Ramagundam (even though its electricity isn't used for Telangana) operating without any problems?
How is the coal from Singareni mines being mined and sent to Andhra and Rayalaseema?
How are Andhra settlers that bought off locals are able to flourish safely and prosperously in many Telangana areas?
In Warangal forests how is AP rayons, a private factory, operating?
How are the cement factories in Nalgonda singareni coal belt, those established by the Andhra Capitalists, able to operate and make profits?
Who is responsible for the closure of Ajamjhahi mills, Sirpur sirsilk mills, Anthargam spinning mills, DBR mills, Alwyn factories, Republic forge, fourteen milk cooling plants? Didn't Naxals object to such irresponsible Government mismanagement?
If Naxals are the cause of Telangana backwardness, how is the current Government who promised to complete all pending projects within three years in Telangana going to do it?
The cause of 1969 Telangana revolution was the Governments partiality. There were no Naxals then.
Who doesn't know that the powers that are used to the stealing of Telangana resources and neglecting Telangana for the past 48 years want to continue to do the same, and are using Naxals as an excuse? Otherwise why would the Government that started talks as a response to people's wishes is throwing stones in the talks process?
