According to Chhattisgarh Police records, police fatalities in the Maoist-related violence increased in 2007 compared to the previous year. Girdhari Nayak, the Inspector General of Police (Maoist Operations), told IANS, "Chhattisgarh recorded 436 deaths in Maoist-related violence in 2007, as against 458 casualties reported in 2006. But the deaths of policemen and special police officers (SPOs) shot up to 200 last year, while that number was 74 in 2006."

According to Indian Express, Bastar in Chhattisgarh is emerging as the new training ground for CPI-Maoist cadres from across the country. The People’s Liberation Guerrilla Army (PLGA) is running four camps in the forests of the region where cadres from several states are being given “on the job” training in carrying out attacks and planting explosives. Intelligence reports and documents seized by the Chhattisgarh Police indicate that Bastar is the new epicentre for Maoist extremism and officials suspect that 1,500-2,000 cadres are present in these camps at any given time. Chhattisgarh Director General of Police Vishwaranjan stated that while three of the camps were located in the jungles of Bijapur and Dantewara districts, one camp is believed to be located in the Abujhmarh forests. “According to intelligence inputs received by us, apart from locally recruited cadres, Maoist extremists from other states, including Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar and West Bengal, are also being given training,” he said. Apart from 8,000-10,000 armed PLGA and Jan militia in the region, there are also 25,000-35,000 Maoist sympathisers or Sangham members. According to the police chief, Bastar was ideal for such camps as the cadres could be given “on the job” training through real attacks on security forces, planting of explosives, blowing up of government buildings and infrastructure. Guerrilla warfare tactics are also reportedly being taught. Lack of an adequate security apparatus emboldens the extremists to often use trainee militia members in their offensives, the report stated. Bastar has five districts — Narayanpur, Kanker, Bastar, Bijapur and Dantewara — and each has been hit by Maoist violence. “For five districts with an area of over 45,000 sq km, we have just 13 battalions of Central forces, while we need at least 70,” Vishwaranjan said. Of the 13 para-military battalions, 10 are posted in the Bastar region while three are posted in the northern districts. Of the 20 police districts in Chhattisgarh, 16 have been officially acknowledged as being Maoist-affected.
