Roving lights, suspected of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) drone has been sighted in the airspace of highly secured base camps of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) for the three consecutive nights in the Sukma District of Chhattisgarh, reports The New Indian Express on October 7. As per the report, flying at a height of around 300 meters, a gleaming light was consistently seen going hither and thither, and later withdrawn abruptly but there was no accompanying sound as usually heard with drones in operation. The CRPF Spokesperson B. C. Patra said, “Such sighting of lights (or suspected drone) during the night hours has never been reported earlier in and around the CRPF base camps across the Maoist-affected Bastar region. It was sighted for three days at around 7 PM. We have sent an alert to the Intelligence Bureau (IB) and the State Intelligence Bureau (SIB). Though it’s not yet confirmed, there remains a suspicion of these flying object might be Maoist drone. It was seen flying over the CRPF camps of Palodi and Kistagram separated by an aerial distance of 5 km. It’s under investigation”. The Bastar Police also confirmed of such shining lights being spotted over the CRPF base camps in the restricted areas. The Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIGP, Anti-Maoist Operation), Sunderraj P. said, “We are verifying and trying to find it out. There are speculations but no confirmation yet. If it’s true then it’s a matter of concern”.

A ‘deputy commander’ of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), carrying a cash reward of INR 800,000 lakh on his head, was killed by the Security Forces (SFs) while a District Reserve Guard (DRG) Jawan received minor injuries in an exchange of fire in the Katekalyan forest area near Pitepal village of Dantewada District in Chhattisgarh on October 8, reports The Times of India.

He was earlier active as Kanger Valley ‘area committee member’ (ACM).
