The ongoing probe into the 2013 killing of 27 Congressmen by Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) at Jiram Ghati in Bastar District seems to have made a significant headway with the Police identifying the owner of the SIM card allegedly used by Maoists to track the movement of the Congress convoy in the area before targeting it, reports The Asian Age on January 9. “The cyber cell of the Chhattisgarh Police has identified the owner of the SIM card used by Naxals during Jiram Ghati attack. He is a local forester. The calls made from a cell phone at the ambush site on the fateful day have been traced to the SIM. The call details recovered from the SIM have revealed involvement of some other people in the incident. Calls made to the SIM had been tipping-off the movement of the Congress convoy in the area, second by second,” a senior Police officer has said. “The forester along with two other local people has been detained for interrogation. We are confident of a major breakthrough in the case after their interrogation,” the Police officer said. All the three suspects would soon be handed over to National Investigation Agency (NIA) which is also probing the case.

According to a report published in Mail Today on January 17, the Centre had lauded the increase in the number of surrenders by Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres in Chhattisgarh and termed it a major achievement but recent intelligence reports have revealed that several of them were not genuine. Sources said the Intelligence Bureau (IB) is unhappy with the manner in which the surrenders are taking place and has discussed the same with the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), the force entrusted with the mandate of combating Maoist insurgency. The matter has also been taken up with the State authorities. Sources said the IB has found that several incidents of surrenders were fake. "In many cases, it has been noticed that those who surrendered were either not Maoists or were sympathisers a long time ago," said an official. The report also pointed to a peculiarity that almost all these surrenders were without turning in a weapon. "This is an indicator that those surrendering are not real Maoists," an official said.

Kin of frontline Congress leaders killed in May 25, 2013 Maoist attack have described the National Investigating Agency (NIA) probe as 'pedestrian' saying that the premier agency overlooked all aspects pertaining to security lapses that led to the massacre in tribal Bastar region, reports The Times of India on January 18. "When investigation was handed over to NIA, we all had hopes that it will unearth serious security lapses and fix responsibility, besides exploring whether there was any conspiracy angle," said Congress legislator Umesh Patel, son of then State Congress chief Nandkumar Patel. Another slain Congress leader Mahendra Karma's son Chhabindra Karma said, "My father had Z plus security while other leaders killed in the attack too had security cover. It took more than three hours for security personnel to reach the spot after the attack." "We all want that State should order fresh probe to find out whether there was any conspiracy. The person, who was in charge of intelligence, when the lapses took place himself was the nodal officer for NIA probe," Karma said, adding that family members of Congress leaders killed in the attack had written to the State Government demanding a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe.

Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh has sought an additional fund from Centre for modernisation of Police in the Naxal-hit State and also demanded a special category status for the State, reports dnaindia.com on January 20. "CM Singh had urged upon the need of special assistance from Centre to take on the Maoist problem during the meeting of Central Zonal Council at Lucknow yesterday [January 19]," said an official statement issued in Raipur on January 20. Sixteen out of 27 districts in Chhattisgarh are affected by the left wing extremism (LWE) and seven of them are worst-hit. Chhattisgarh should be accorded special A category status like that of J & K and north-eastern states so that it would receive 90 per cent of assistance from Centre and arrange abundant resources to combat menace of Naxalism, he said. Till June 30, 2014, Chhattisgarh had spent 3,500 crore on the deployment of central paramilitary forces in the state. Centre should bear this cost henceforth so that the state would get rid of the burden, he said. Emphasising on the need to ensure security to infrastructure projects like roads, bridges, railway track and other mega projects in Maoist zone, Singh also urged to include expenditure on deployment of security personnel for such development works in the project cost. The strength of the Police personnel in the state has reached to 68,354 which was 22,549 in 2000 when Chhattisgarh was founded, he said briefing about the status of Police department. The number of Police Station has jumped to 424 from 298 while Police outposts have increased from 57 to 107 during this period, he said. In past 11 years, eleven new Districts have been formed while as many armed forces battalions have been sanctioned, he said.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) has called a ‘Dandakaranya bandh’ on January 26 to protest U.S. President Barak Obama’s visit to India as the chief guest of the Republic Day function, reports The Hindu. In posters and pamphlets posted in different parts of Bastar in Chhattisgarh on January 22, the Maoists termed the U.S. the “biggest expansionist force” and “enemy of people all over the world.” A press statement issued by the South Regional Committee of the CPI-Maoist appealed to the people to fully support the bandh (general shutdown strike) call. It said Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Obama “will push a capitalist agenda which will result in the exploitation of the common public.” It warned that Obama and Modi would work “towards bringing maximum Foreign Direct Investment [FDI] in insurance, banking, mining and defence sectors” and feared that the “maximum number of pacts inked by the two leaders would be related to FDI.” The Maoist outfit called for all disadvantaged sections to unite against the “capitalist and expansionist” policies of the “Hindu government” at the Centre. In another press note, Gudsa Usendi, spokesperson of the Dandakaranya Special Zonal Committee (DKSZC) of the CPI-Maoist, appealed to the people to boycott Republic Day celebrations against Obama’s visit.
