Sehrai Baba, the ‘chief commander of operations’ of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), was among five terrorists killed during an encounter with the security forces in the Sheikhnaar forest area of Kupwara district on April 8. Gazi Asif Zajim alias Sehrai Baba alias Qari Asif, hailing from Karachi in Pakistan, according to official sources, had earlier functioned as the outfit’s ‘district commander’ in Kupwara for two years. He had been appointed as Jaish’s Kashmir chief after Gazi Baba, a key accused in the December 13, 2001 Parliament attack case, was killed by troops during an encounter in Srinagar on August 30, 2003. Among others killed along with Sehrai Baba were his deputy Malik Ghulam Illahi alias Irfan and ‘district commander’ Zubair. However, in Pakistan, Associated Press of America quoted the Jaish spokesperson Amir Hamza as having claimed that Sehrai Baba was alive and that reports of his death were "propaganda to demoralise the Mujahideen."

According to the New Indian Express, alleging growing contradiction and dishonesty in the left-wing extremist movement, a front-ranking ideologue of the proscribed People's War Group (PWG), Pilla Venkateshwar Rao alias Gautam, who carried a reward of Rupees 10 lakh on his head, surrendered to the police in Andhra Pradesh on April 15. Speaking to the media in the State capital Hyderabad, Rao said that he decided to quit the PWG, with which he had a 22 year association, as he was disillusioned with the functioning and policies of its leadership. Rao, a 46-year-old lecturer by profession, is reported to have handled ‘political classes’ for the PWG cadre across the country for the past two decades. "I have lost faith in the present leadership due to political dishonesty, stifling and inherent contradictions. The party has been continuously losing its mass base in Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh right from 1999, while the focus has been only on militarisation of cadre. In the given circumstances, I do not think the revolution will ever succeed," claimed Rao.

According to Assam Tribune, the three major Opposition party combine led by the Congress on April 27 urged the Mizoram Government to postpone its proposed talks with the Bru National Liberation Front (BNLF) scheduled to be held from April 29. In a press conference at the State capital Aizawl, the Opposition leaders demanded that the State Government-BNLF dialogue should not be held before counting of votes on May 13 as the BNLF leaders were forcibly holding postal ballots for 3,620 Bru voters now lodged in Tripura refugee camps. "We suspected that the BNLF delegation would use the postal ballot papers as a bargaining chip with the State government during the talks," the Opposition leaders said. They alleged that most of the postal ballot papers issued to the 4,266 Bru voters in neighbouring Tripura refugee camps were forcibly collected by BNLF top leaders on April 23 and taken to the outfit’s office in Naisingpara.
