The police seized a .303 rifle, 10 live cartridges, three empty cases, a detonator and Maoist literature and transistors, said Gaurav Sharma, Superintendent of Police (SP), Jhargram. When asked if there was any mandate from the government to launch such an operation when the Chief Minister had given a seven-day ultimatum to the Maoists, Alok Rajoria, Additional SP (Operations), Jhargram said: “If there is an armed movement, we have to operate.” Vivek Sahai, Inspector General, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) said, “We have no order to restrict our operations.
