''Prima facie it appears that two problems, which we are facing now has a long history to evolve to the present dimension and the Commission tried to hit the basic issues, which were responsible for it.

Referring to the problems of naxalism and insurgency, witnessed in various parts of the country, Mr Moily said the problems, which were mainly of socio, economic and cultural in nature can be overcome by taking suitable measures, including negotiations.

On terrorism, Mr Moily informed that the Commission also dealt with the issue and came to the conclusion that the menace can be tackled, if youths of the country were educated about it.
