Chhattisgarh: Stop work in Maoist areas, forest employees union writes to Chhattisgarh Chief Minister
Amid claims by the Centre and the Chhattisgarh Government that
Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) activities are on the
decline, the state’s forest employees union has written to Chief
Minister Raman Singh and, citing the Maoist threat, urged him to
immediately stop all departmental works in the interior areas, reports
The Indian Express on March 23. The employees have threatened to go on
an indefinite strike from March 25 if their demands were not met. Dated
March 21, the letter was sent by Umesh Singh, convener of Chhattisgarh
Forest Employees Union. A section of the forest employees are already on
strike since March 12.
