Security Forces (SFs) in Jharkhand on January 8 launched an "all-out operation" against Peoples Liberation Front of India (PLFI)-a splinter group of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), reports The Times of India. Though Police did not disclose the details, they said "Operation Karo II" will continue throughout January, 2015. Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Commando Battalion for Resolute Action (CoBRA), State's specialized anti-Naxal-[Left-Wing Extremism (LWE)] force Jharkhand Jaguar and District Police will jointly carry out the operation across eight districts. Launching the Operation in Khunti District, Director General of Police (DGP) Rajiv Kumar said "In the past one year, we have run special operations and flushed out Maoists from places they used to consider their strongholds. We have now decided to target PLFI, which is a criminal organization without any ideology and indulges in senseless killings." Police estimate that PLFI has 300-odd cadres engaged in collecting levy from contractors, small industrialists, traders and transporters. A Police report in 2014 said PLFI carried out as many incidents as CPI-Maoist. A police officer said the aim is to catch Dinesh Gope. In September 2014 the State Police had launched 'Operation Karo-I' in which 50 PLFI rebels were arrested while two were killed in Simdega District. "In the two-month long operation over six encounters with the PLFI took place and huge cache of arms was recovered," said a Police officer.

Joint forces launched massive anti-Naxal [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] operations, in the forests of Gumla and Lohardaga Districts on May 29, a week after Jharkhand High Court pulled up Police for failing to track 30 children who were allegedly abducted by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres last month, reports The Telegraph. Senior Police officers said the operations were part of the state government's continuing efforts to contain extremism. But sources claimed that the recent High Court rap had prompted the Security Forces (SFs) to accelerate search operations for the abducted children. "We have received information on movement of rebels in certain pockets of these districts. Our boys are combing the forests. If need be, the area of operations will be expanded further," South Chhotanagpur range Deputy Inspector-General (DIG) of Police Arun Kumar Singh said.
