The Hindu reports that Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres have blasted a high tension 220-KV power supply tower in the forested Bastar region. Security forces who scanned the forests from helicopters on June 6 located the tower. Hundreds of villages in the Jagdalpur, Bijapur, Dantewada and Narayanpur districts in the southern districts of the state have plunged into darkness as a result. A senior police officer said, “It would take at least one week to restore power supply”. The power disruption has brought to a halt mining in Bailadilla, which has India’s largest iron ore deposits, thereby affecting the operations of the National Mineral Development Corporation (NMDC) and mining facilities of the Essar company. “The total loss to NMDC could be INR 10-11 crore (100-110 millions) a day,” a senior official of the corporation said. “The pumping operations have come to a standstill,” an Essar spokesman said.

On June 19, Manohar Parrikar, leader of opposition in the Goa legislative assembly said that the naxalite (left-wing extremist) activities are spreading to the state, reports Times of India. "In the last two or three years there have been Naxal activities in the state. There are Naxals from the tribal areas of Jharkhand who have links with CPI (ML), a banned organisation operating in the state", he said while chairing the Goa Legislative Assembly ad hoc committee on home affairs. The issue attracted great concern during discussions. The issue of SIMI entering Goa was also discussed. IGP Kishan Kumar said, "We are fully aware of the sensitivity of the issue." A top police official confirmed that the Goa police have prepared a report on naxal activity in the state that would be soon submitted to the government. The report clearly states that at the present time the group may not be an apparent cause of concern, but if not checked it could quickly turn into a serious law and order problem. According to the report, a group of about seven persons, three of them from Goa, having Naxal links are operating in the mining areas under the guise of uplifting the underprivileged. Targeting the mining areas of Bicholim, Quepem and Sanguem, the group has often spoken briefly, yet powerfully against mining activities, police harassment and people's rights
