The police will adopt an aggressive stance against Naxals and will try to eliminate them rather than risking their lives, Kanwar told reporters here.

A change in strategy has been necessitated following three major strikes in the State in which the lives of many jawans were lost, he said.

Kanwar said Chief Minister Raman Singh held a high level meeting to discuss the issue but refused to divulge further details.
