Republic Media Network has accessed an alleged letter purportedly written by Rona Wilson, one of the accused in the Bhima Koregaon case, to Prakash, a member of the Maoist Central Committee. The letter, dated 2017, begins with "Red Salutes" to comrade Prakash and goes on to propose a “Rajiv Gandhi-type incident” to “end Modi raj.”
The letter suggests that the Maoist group was working to strengthen ties with like-minded organizations, political parties, and minority representatives across the country. The letter also voices discomfort with the Modi-led Hindu regime, noting that “Modi has successfully established BJP govt in more than 15 states despite big defeats like Bihar and West Bengal.”

Wilson expresses concern that if Modi’s momentum continues, it will spell significant trouble for the party. Towards the end, the letter acknowledges the risks involved, admitting that the plan to “target his (Modi’s) road shows sounds suicidal and there is a good chance that we might fail.”
However, Wilson still urges the party and the central committee to consider the proposal, arguing that the “survival of the party is supreme to all sacrifices.”

Beyond the conspiracy to assassinate PM Narendra Modi , the letter allegedly reveals Rona Wilson, along with Vernon Gonsalves, Arun Ferreira, who are all the accused in Bhima Koregaon case, expressing concerns about the “two line struggle that is taking shape on the urban front.”
It also details intentions to provide legal aid for former Delhi University professor G.N. Saibaba, who is under legal scrutiny for alleged Maoist ties and involvement in activities considered acts of war against the nation. The letter also outlines a coordinated effort by communist-leaning groups to organize programs and protests aimed at swaying public opinion in their favor. In one of the most explosive revelations, it mentions an alleged meeting and the exchange of Rs 8 crore for the annual supply of M4 rifles with 400,000 rounds of ammunition.

PM Modi has frequently condemned political parties for fostering the urban Naxal mindset in India. This alleged letter serves as a stark example of how such groups can pose a severe threat to India’s national security, sovereignty, and integrity.

Further in August 2018, five more activists, including Varavara Rao, Arun Ferreira, Sudha Bharadwaj and Gautam Navlakha, were also arrested from various parts of the country over suspected Maoist links.
Later in October 2020, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in a 10,00-page chargesheet, named one Stan Swamy, a Jesuit priest and accused him of conspiring to bring together Dalit and Muslim forces to take on what he referred to as the ‘fascist’ government’ at the Centre.
NIA had also accused Swmay of being connected to the banned left-wing militant organisation, CPI (Maoist).
The investigating agencies alleged that all the arrested activists had links with the Maoists, who backed Elgar Parishad event held in Pune on 31 December 2017, which further led to the Bhima Koregaon incident on January 1, 2018.
A chargesheet was filed against 10 people and claimed that the December 31 Elgar Parishad event was organised by the banned CPI(Maoist), to mobilise Dalit groups and other organisations against the ruling regime.
Agencies said that inciting speeches at the Elgar Parishad event provoked people which led to Bhima Koregaon violence.
A police document claimed that activists were active members of banned CPI and there was also a plot to assassinate Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
