One of the major challenges faced by Chhattisgarh after its formation was:

The Naxalite insurgency
Lack of infrastructure
Mass migration to other states
Shortage of water resources

The correct answer is: The Naxalite insurgency.

The Naxalite insurgency is a Maoist communist insurgency that has been ongoing in India since the late 1960s. The insurgency is concentrated in the central and eastern parts of the country, including Chhattisgarh. The Naxalites are a militant group that seeks to overthrow the Indian government and establish a communist state. The insurgency has caused widespread violence and displacement in the affected areas.

The Naxalite insurgency is one of the major challenges faced by Chhattisgarh. The insurgency has hampered economic development and investment in the state. It has also led to the displacement of thousands of people. The state government has been struggling to contain the insurgency for many years.

The other options are not correct answers.

  • Lack of infrastructure is a challenge faced by many states in India, including Chhattisgarh. However, it is not one of the major challenges faced by the state.
  • Mass migration to other states is not a challenge faced by Chhattisgarh. In fact, the state has experienced a net inflow of population in recent years.
  • Shortage of water resources is a challenge faced by some parts of Chhattisgarh, but it is not one of the major challenges faced by the state.
