In a significant operation against Left Wing Extremism in Chhattisgarh’s Abujhmad region, Narayanpur district police and the District Reserve Guard (DRG) discovered a hidden Maoist weapons manufacturing dump. Acting on intelligence, the DRG team uncovered a substantial cache of materials for making improvised weapons, including grenade launchers and arms, without any casualties.
The recovered items, which included aluminum rods and iron pipes in various sizes, were found in the Korsakodo-Pangud-Kandulpar area. These materials, totaling around 1,000 kg of aluminum rods and various iron pipes, were seized and transported to Sonpur Police Station for further legal procedures. The operation showcased the effectiveness of the Chhattisgarh government’s strategy to combat Naxal activities.
The Chhattisgarh government’s approach involves sustained security presence, establishing new camps, and engaging with local communities. Recent initiatives like the “Mad Bachao” campaign and the opening of a security camp at Korsakodo have enhanced trust among villagers in Abujhmad interiors. This has led to increased sharing of crucial information about Naxal hideouts, aiding in disrupting their supply chains and production units.
Narayanpur Superintendent of Police Robinson Guria highlighted the collaborative efforts of security forces, paramilitary units, and vigilant citizens in maintaining peace and promoting development in the region. The ongoing operations, infrastructure projects, and welfare schemes aim to create a Naxal-free Bastar, complemented by surrender drives and rehabilitation programs to dissuade individuals from joining insurgency activities.
