The Telegraph reports that three persons, including a woman, working at a construction site, were killed while one was injured when suspected National Santhali Liberation Army (NSLA) militants fired upon them at Babubil under Gossaigaon subdivision in Kokrajhar District in the morning of April 2. Police sources said four to five armed militants in army fatigues came to an RCC bridge construction site and fired indiscriminately, killing two labourers and a truck driver. The labourers have been identified as Ashatan Bibi and Saiful Sheikh and the truck driver as Rajib Muchahary. The injured labourer is identified as Aiyuf Rehman. Sources said there were about 10-12 labourers working at the site when the incident occurred. Sources said the militants had earlier demanded a ransom of INR 100000 after abducting the contractor involved in the construction of the bridge.“They had also come earlier and asked us to stop the construction. We had informed the main contractor about it but he had asked us to continue with our work. He had said he would look into it but then this incident happened today,” a labourer said.

At least four passengers were killed and eight injured as twelve coaches of New Delhi-Dibrugarh Rajdhani Express derailed near Golden Ganj station in Chapra in East Champaran District on June 25, reports Zee News. Railway suspected "sabotage" by Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) behind the derailment as there was a blast on the track. "Prima facie, it appears to be a case of sabotage. There was a blast on the track, which could have caused the derailment," Railway Board Chairman Arunendra Kumar told PTI. "Another goods train, 60 kms away from the station, also got derailed due to a blast. 18 wagons got derailed in the accident," Kumar said. The Maoists have given bandh (general shut down) call to protest security forces' "strong armed" action against "innocent people" in the area on suspicion of being Maoists’ sympathiser. Meanwhile, a live bomb fitted with a timer device has been found near tracks, which has given credence to reports of Maoists having a role in the incident.

At least six persons, including three militants, two civilians and one soldier were killed in Kathua District on March 28, reports Daily Excelsior. Three Pakistani militants struck at Tarnah bridge at Dayala Chak near Hiranagar around 5 am, hijacked a Bolero along with driver after killing a passenger and injuring three others, travelled about 19 kilometers on Jammu-Pathankot National Highway and killed the Bolero driver before striking at an Army camp at Janglot in which an Army soldier and all three militants, believed to be Pakistanis, were killed while another soldier was injured. Entire operation lasted about 12 hours. The militants killed the Bolero driver by putting a cloth in his mouth and abandoned the vehicle at Sahar Khud before opening fire at the Army camp at Janglot. However, alert troops didn’t allow the militants to enter inside the camp and engaged them in firing outside killing all of them during nearly 12 hours long operation, which was declared close at 6.30 pm. The Inspector General of Police (IGP) Rajesh Kumar said the militants were heavily equipped with modern weaponry and eatable. Recoveries made from three slain militants included three AK rifles, three pistols, 18 magazines, a large quantity of hand grenades, four pre-prepared Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and eatables. Sources admitted that the militants were Pakistanis and cadre of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) outfit though they didn’t carry anything, which could establish their identity or outfit. The photographs, tactics of fighting and heavy weaponry and other techniques adopted by the militants indicated that they were Pakistan cadre of the LeT outfit. Meanwhile, a militant outfit ‘Al Shohada Brigade’, believed to be a shadow outfit of LeT terror outfit, today claimed responsibility for the terror attack. A ‘spokesperson’ of the outfit called some news organisations in Srinagar and claimed the responsibility for the attack. The outfit’s name was first circulated on September 26, 2013 when it claimed the responsibility for twin attacks on Police Station in Hiranagar and an Army camp in Samba District.
