As Chhattisgarh is gearing up for the Assembly polls that are scheduled to be held on November 11, more than 400 Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) commanders and guerrillas held a meeting on October 29 at Bastar to disrupt the elections, said intelligence reports, reports IBN Live. The Intelligence agencies have alerted the Centre and the State about a possible Maoist attack between November 8 and 10, said reports. Dainik Bhaskar adds that as per reports received from Intelligence Bureau, the Maoists are planning a major attack along the borders of Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Prime Ministerial candidate, Narendra Modi, and the Congress Vice President, Rahul Gandhi, are planning to visit Chhattisgarh to improve the prospects of their respective parties in the coming assembly elections. Both the candidates are said to be possible targets of the potent Maoist attack.

Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), the nodal agency overseeing deployment of security forces for the assembly elections, has increased the number of unarmed aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the Maoist zone for round-the-clock surveillance, reports The Times of India. UAVs have been withdrawn from Maoist zones in Maharashtra's Gadchiroli, Jharkhand and Odisha and mounted above Bastar. Besides, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has asked the NTRO, country's elite intelligence agency, to fly UAV Heron whose range — about 400 km — is much more than the UAV Netra. The Israeli Heron is operated from airbase at Begumpet in Hyderabad. It was supposed to start operating from October 1. However, its launch was delayed by about a month due to various reasons, including weather. Further, as many as 167 polling stations in Bastar relocated 167 polling stations in the sensitive areas of Bastar region, which will have polling in the first phase of Chhattisgarh Assembly elections, have been relocated for "security and accessibility" reasons, reports IBN Live. "A total of 167 polling booths of Bastar region were shifted due to security and accessibility reasons," Chief Electoral Officer Sunil Kujur told reporters.

as intelligence inputs point to "assiduous preparations" by the CPI-Maoist to disrupt the November 11 poll in Chhattisgarh, the Election Commission (EC) has agreed to relocate around 150 polling booths in the Naxal-infested interiors of south Bastar to "safer" places along the arterial roads, reports The Times of India. Though the Union home ministry and Chhattisgarh government had identified 299 booths as "hyper-sensitive" and requested the EC to shift them out as polling parties and paramilitary forces would risk landmine attacks while accessing these booths, the Commission ensured that only as many booths were relocated as agreed among the candidates of all parties. "After the deliberations, there is consensus in favour of relocation of around 150 polling stations. These may now be shifted to places closer to the roads, or even safer locations within the villages, such as the panchayat office," an EC official told The Times of India.Intelligence agencies have lately reported large-scale mobilization of Maoist cadres in Naxal-dominated areas of Chhattisgarh, assembling and planting of IEDs on routes to polling booths and formation of small "crack" teams to locate suitable ambush points to target polling parties and security forces. This has led the Union Home Ministry to seek stepped up counter-Naxal operations not only in Chhattisgarh but also adjoining areas of Maharashtra, Odisha and Andhra Pradesh. Other measures advised are aggressive intelligence-gathering, proper road-opening, assessing possible ambush points and dismantling of IEDs possibly planted there. The nodal officer appointed by the Chhattisgarh Government after the Darbha Ghati massacre to coordinate security for political events has also been asked to coordinate the arrangements for VIP movement and rallies.

Across poll-bound Bastar region in south Chhattisgarh, where the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) hold sway, Security Forces led by the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) found about 500kg Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) in the last 10 days averting loss of lives and property, reports The Times of India on November 8. Maoists planted these IEDs along highways and kutcha village roads, to enforce poll boycott and harm Security Forces. "Of them, most are command wire IEDs. However, pressure IEDs have also been found in Chhattisgarh," said a senior CRPF officer. Early November 7, a CRPF-led joint forces team found two 25kg command wire IEDs packed in steel cans along the highway between Dornapal and Jagargunda in Sukma District. The IEDs were planted close to the spot where the Maoists had ambushed and killed 75 CRPF personnel in 2010. Most of the IEDs detected are made of ammonium nitrate though large number of gelatin IEDs have also been found. Since November 1, security forces found 132kg IEDs in Chhattisgarh and 130kg along the state's border with Jharkhand. More IEDs were defused at the spot they were found. In October, 109kg IEDs were found in Chhattisgarh and 274kg along Chhattisgarh-Jharkhand border. Bastar region, which has seven districts and 12 assembly constituencies spread over about 40,000 sq km, goes to polls on November 11.

18 assembly constituencies across eight Districts in Bastar in South Chhattisgarh and Rajnandgaon and Kanker Districts in North Chhattisgarh went for poll on November 11, reports The Times of India. The voters defied the poll boycott called by CPI-Maoist as well as a heightened threat of IED/armed attacks to record 67 percent turnout till 6pm on November 11, reports The Times of India. "As compared to 55% recorded in 2008, polling in these constituencies had touched 63% till 3 pm. We are hopeful that the final figures may be anything between 65% and 70%...Given that around 20% of the electorate, as per convention, never participates in polling, the turnout this time is beyond our expectations," said an unnamed Senior home ministry official.

Five Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres, including a woman, were arrested in separate search operations in Chhattisgarh's Bijapur District, for attacking security personnel during the first phase polling on November 11 in the State, reports The Times of India on November 20. A team of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Commando Battalion for Resolute Action (CoBRA) force and District force arrested them from the forest under the limits of Basaguda Police Station, said a senior Police official. The search party was on a combing operation in Basaguda area when it spotted two people fleeing from the forest. Security forces nabbed them after chasing them for sometime, he said. During interrogation, they admitted their involvement in an attack on security personnel in forests of Tarrem village on November 11, when polling for state assembly elections was held in the region, he said. In another incident, three Maoists were held by a joint group of Chhattisgarh Armed Force (CAF) and District force from the forests of Bhusapur and Marudbaka villages two days ago, the official said. The Maoists, reportedly members of Pamed/Usoor area committee of CPI-Maoist, were earlier involved in several cases of crime, including attempt to murder, planting bombs and attacks on police party in the region, he added.

About 400 spiked wooden blocks planted to trap and maim patrol and election duty personnel were recovered by Security Forces as they were looking for hidden landmines in Bastar area of Chhattisgarh, reports Zee News on November 14. Sources said these blocks had sharp nails and chiseled metal rods which would act as deadly booby traps once security men or poll parties walk over them. "While the forces were looking for Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) to defuse them, they were surprised to find these innovative traps. Close to 400 such death clutches were recovered from Bijapur district alone," a senior official said.

The first phase of Chhattisgarh elections witnessed higher-than-expected turnout but in eight districts worst affected by Left Wing Extremism (LWE), at least 20 booths recorded zero polling, an official said, reports The Indian Express. A Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) internal note said "security forces frustrated Maoist plan to disrupt polls." One of the reasons attributed to the eight percent increase in voter turnout compared to the 2008 Assembly elections in these 18 constituencies was the "reach of the security forces deeper into these areas over the past one year." Since November last year, the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) established 20 new camps in areas like Narayanpur, Kondagaon and Sukma. Many polling booths were located closer to these camps so that people could vote despite a ban called by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoists). MHA lauded the meticulously planned induction of 564 companies of additional forces, post-induction training including IED detection and most importantly scaling up anti-Maoist operations closer to poll date.

Manish Kunjam, the Communist Party of India (CPI) candidate of Konta constituency in Chhattisgarh, where the polls have already been held on November 11, alleges that the media reporting on the first phase of elections is “provoking” the Maoists, reports The Hindu on November 17. “The media is routinely highlighting the fact that villagers here have defied the Maoist diktat and voted fearlessly. This may provoke the rebels,” he said in a press statement. “The fact is if the Maoists want, they can influence voting in cities too – in rural areas, no one would dare to vote despite the presence of a large number of forces, unless the Maoists approve of it. The villagers know, they are the ones who have to stay in the village after the forces leave,” Kunjam added. He appealed to media to refrain from provoking the Maoists.

Addressing the inaugural session of the three-day conference of Directors General of Police (DGPs) in New Delhi, organised by the Intelligence Bureau, Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde on November 21 lauded the Central paramilitary and Police forces for their role in conducting peaceful assembly elections in Chhattisgarh, a hotbed of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), reports The Hindu. He said that high voter turnout in Chhattisgarh has sent the right message to the Maoists that common people of the area have reposed faith in the country's democratic polity. “There has also been a drop in the casualty figure of security forces from 111 last year to 97 this year. On the other hand, the number of Naxals [Left Wing Extremists (LWEs)] killed has gone up to 97 from 71 last year for the same period,” he said.

"Even when elaborate inputs were conveyed apprehending that Naxalites may trigger some strikes during this week, such an incident (killing of four CRPF jawans) happened," a senior IB official told PTI requesting anonymity. The jawans were killed when Naxalites ambushed a road opening party of the security forces in Maoist-infested Bijapur district on November 27. "Now security forces have been told to be more cautious anticipating more such attacks and not to take the situation lightly because of a successful election," he said adding, they were told to stay prepared and strictly follow standard operating procedures (SOPs). According to the advisory, the IB has called for heightening security around Police Stations, check posts and camps and conducting area domination within five kilometres radius of these places. It also asked police jawans and officials to refrain from roaming alone in the region. Carefully mobilizing on the tip-off about the movement of Naxalites as they may lay ambush in those areas are other precautions given to security forces, according to the IB document.
