Three TDP leaders held captive by Naxals in Visakhapatnam
Hyderabad: Three local Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leaders have been held captive allegedly by Naxals in Visakhapatnam district, Andhra Pradesh police said on Tuesday. Naxals through their network had asked the three TDP leaders to meet them at Dharkonda in the district on Monday afternoon and accordingly they went, Visakhapatnam district Superintendent of Police K Praveen told PTI over phone. “Only on the assurance by the Naxals that the leaders won’t be harmed, TDP’s G.K. Veedhi Mandal President M Balaiah and two other local leaders — M.Mahesh and V.Balaiah —went to meet them.

Now, they have been held captive,” the SP said. Police received information regarding it last night. “We have verified (the information). The only possibility is the Maoists will take them in the deep interior forest area towards the border of East Godavari district…we are waiting for Maoists to put forth their demands (for release of TDP leaders),” Praveen added. It is suspected that the Naxals resorted to hold them hostage to protest the mining of Bauxite in the area.

Naxals eye South India in expansion plans
GADCHIROLI: There is bad news for security forces as Naxals now aim to expand their armed revolution down south aiming specifically at area where three states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka converge. A document, penned by Naxal’s spokesperson Abhay, reflecting the move decided on during the crucial 11th unity congress of Naxalites was recovered during an encounter in Gadchiroli-Gondia belt. The document also drew comparison between the contemporary arms struggle of Kerala’s Wayanad tribes led by one Varghese and that of their own origin in north Bengal’s Naxalwadi in the late 60s. The Naxalites also highlighted successful launching of a military formation to function in the region encompassing western ghat region and Kerala-Tamil Nadu-Karnataka junction.
The document said the formation, within three months of being launched at the end of 2014, managed to spread anti-government propaganda in the area where several youngsters and others from exploited class have been motivated to join the arms struggle. The Naxals claimed 2014 as a year of achievements and setbacks alike and made clear their objective was to extend their bases across central India so their area of influence runs from Jharkhand to via swathes of central India southern states.
Already enjoying strong presence in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, the Naxals now aim to bring more regions under their influence. The Naxals, who expressed deep concern over having lost several top leaders in fights last year, have also lamented the arrests of several experienced cadres from south India like Murlidharan, alias Ajit, alias Vasant this year in Pune. He was a ‘courier’ working for Kerala state committee. The rebels pointed out in the document that Kerala police, resorting to repressive measures, had started targeting their support base now after feeling threat from them. It also highlighted arrests of some foreigners by the Kerala police.

The Naxals also expressed anguish over the arrests of Praveen from Tamil Nadu state committee and couple of others including a law student and two his women accomplices in Hyderabad in the last few months which delivered a setback to the rebels’ dream of spreading influence in southern states capturing the strategic locations of western ghat and three states’ junction. The Naxals also claimed that movement by their party had been steadily growing in Karnataka’s Malnat forest regions despite several hurdles posed by the elements supporting the government. They now aim to motivate local population to join their struggle by highlighting the sacrifices made by the leaders from the south who had dedicated their lives to the rebels’ cause.

Ahead of Bihar elections, Maoists issue poll boycott threats in their strongholds
Jamui: The Maoists have asked voters in Jamui, Gaya, Aurangabad and Jehanabad to stay away from Bihar assembly polls. The CPI (Maoist) has pasted posters, circulated long notes and asked the villagers directly to desist from voting “Soon after the Election Commission announced the polling dates for Dented in South, Maoists Move to Central Odisha
BHUBANESWAR:As the State police makes a dent in the Left Wing Extremists stronghold in the southern districts, the CPI (Maoist) has begun expanding its base in Central Odisha taking the security forces by surprise. This time, it is Satkosia, the second Tiger Reserve of the State. The recent movement of the Maoists in Satkosia Tiger Reserve has indicated that the Deogarh-Sambalpur-Sundargarh division of the outlawed outfit has made inroads into Angul taking advantage of its geographical location. Earlier, Pallahara had witnessed movement of Maoists but the region came under operational jurisdiction of Jajpur-Kalinga Nagar unit which has since weakened and is no more in the reckoning.
Similipal experienced its share of Maoist violence in late 2000s while Nuapada’s Sunabeda Wildlife Sanctuary, which has been accorded in-principle approval for TR status, continues to struggle with Maoist menace. So much so that the Wildlife Wing is unable to submit its plan to National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) in the absence of a ground level survey. The recent movement in Angul, according to intelligence sources, is more through Athmallik-Binkai-Thakurgarh-Handappa-Chhendipara-Rairakhol-Deogarh corridor, which the Maoists want to take control of. The unit is being commanded by Kunu Dehuri and comprises at least six lady cadres and another 20 male members.
In the last three to four days, Maoist movements were reported from Chhutkei, Labangi, Tuluka and Chhuari most of which are prime tourist attractions in Satkosia Wildlife Sanctuary. Given the dense forests and hills abutting Mahanadi, the area provides perfect foil to Maoists and they have taken full advantage of it. But, it is not just forest and topography, Angul is more vulnerable because it is not equipped to take on the Maoists. Apart from Handappa and Kishore Nagar, no other police station in the district is fortified. Angul does not feature in security-related expenditure (SRE) scheme of the State government. Besides, SI-level officers in the police stations of the district have very little training to counter-Maoist operations while in most cases, age is not in their favour. What’s more worrisome, Angul is industry concentrated too. Security experts say it is about time State Police mobilised Central Para Military Forces to Angul before Maoists make a statement.

Maoists trying to strengthen base in State
GUWAHATI, Oct 4 – The Maoist rebels are desperately trying to establish strong roots in Assam, not only to expand its bases, but also to bring in weapons through the porous international border with Myanmar. However, arrest of senior leaders from time to time has proved to be a major setback for the rebels. Highly placed police sources told The Assam Tribune that according to information gathered by the police and security agencies, the Maoist rebels have managed to set up three committees – Upper Assam Leading Committee, Lower Assam Leading Committee and Barak Valley Leading Committee. Of the three committees, the Upper Assam Committee is the most active.
Sources said that the Maoists are trying to infiltrate among the tea tribes in the districts of Sivasagar and Jorhat, and among the flood-affected people in Sadiya, Majuli and Dhemaji. The tea tribes are considered to be most vulnerable as they may be wooed by the Maoists because of the problems faced by the tribes. The slow progress of talks with five militant groups of tea tribes and Adivasi community is also a major cause of concern as the frustrated cadres of the outfits may switch over to the fold of the Maoist rebels. There are at least a thousand cadres of such militant groups sitting idle and the Maoists may try to use them. At least granting of status of Scheduled Tribe to the tea tribes, who are considered tribals in other parts of the country, will deter them from joining the Maoist rebels, sources added. Another major aim of the Maoists to establish base in Assam and other parts of the North East is to get access to the arms smuggling rackets.
So far, the Maoists are depending mostly on weapons snatched from Government agencies. But the inputs suggest that the Maoists are thinking in lines of bring in weapons from abroad and the porous international border with Myanmar is now the easiest way for doing so. Almost all the rebel groups of the North East are now bringing in weapons through the porous international border with Myanmar and the Maoists are eyeing the same arms smuggling route.
On the recent arrest of hardcore Maoist rebel Aditya Bora in Golaghat district, police sources said that Bora was earlier arrested in Jharkhand in February 2011. But after he was brought to Assam, he managed to jump bail and rejoined the rebel group. Since them he managed to evade arrest and tried to strengthen the organization in lower Assam. The Lower Assam Leading Committee is dormant after the arrest of key member Aklanta Rabha, while, the recent arrest of three rebels including a woman from West Bengal posed major setback to the rebels in the Barak Valley., the Maoists started giving poll boycott calls in their strongholds in Jamui, Gaya and Aurangabad.
