BHUBANESWAR: The State Government today sought inclusion of four more districts under the Left Wing extremist-hit area development scheme. The Government also asked the Centre to sanction at least Rs 300 crore for early construction of Vijayawada- Ranchi road, the lifeline of tribal hinterland. The road will pass through 12 tribal-dominated districts of the State and will help in tackling the growing activities of the Maoists in an effective manner. Orissa
