"anti-naxal-operation"

Despite Indian government’s efforts to wean youth away, hardcore Maoists remain undeterred and will rise again, though when is hard to predict

Security forces in Chhattisgarh’s Dantewada demolished three Maoist memorials in a preemptive strike ahead of Naxalite Martyr Week. The joint operation by police and CRPF aimed to disrupt insurgent propaganda, assert state presence, and strengthen local engagement as part of anti-Maoist initiatives

CPI (Maoist) spokesperson Abhay criticised Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s rejection of peace talks with armed Maoists. He accused the Centre of continuing attacks despite a ceasefire and claimed the government aims to displace adivasis under the guise of anti-Maoist operations

In a major anti-Naxal operation, security forces neutralized 27 Maoists, including CPI-M General Secretary Basavaraju, marking an unprecedented breakthrough confirmed by Union Minister Amit Shah.

The 21-day operation codenamed 'Black Forest', which began on April 21 at the Korgotalu Hills, ended after 21 days on May 11, leading to the killing of 31 Maoists, including 16 women, seizure of 450 IEDs, about two tonnes of explosives, a number of rifles among others and ammunition

Arrival of electricity has eliminated the atmosphere of fear and insecurity and is a significant step towards improving their quality of life, say residents

The Maoists were killed in a joint operation by the Central Reserve Police Force, SoG Odisha and Chhattisgarh Police along the Chhattisgarh-Odisha border

The naxalites were killed during fresh exchange of fire that took place late on Monday night and early Tuesday morning in a forest under the Mainpur police station area along the Chhattisgarh-Odisha border

The IED blast at Ambeli village in Chhattisgarh’s Bijapur district claimed lives of eight DRG personnel and a driver

The two arrested naxals also included an area commander, cops also recovered rifles of different calibre

These cadres belonged to the People's Liberation Guerrilla Army (PLGA) military company no. 1 of naxalites

According to officials, several naxalites are reported to be either killed or injured in the skirmish

The gunfight took place on Wednesday night in the forest near Elanganar village under Darbha police station limits, over 300 km from Raipur.

Teams of the District Reserve Guard (DRG) and the 223rd battalion Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) were involved in the operation.

The gunfight broke out when a patrolling team of the DRG was cordoning off a forest near Hakwa village.

Assistant Commandant Nitin Bhalerao, 33, succumbed to injuries suffered in the blast in the early hours of Sunday and nine commandos, were injured.

The gunfight took place at around 5 am in Darbha forest under Kutru police station limits when a joint team of the District Reserve Guard (DRG) and the District Force was out on an anti-Naxal operation.
