Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres killed Partho Mishra (30), a driver, at Kenbanki village in the Karkel area of Khunti District on December 1, reports The Telegraph. Khunti Superintendent of Police M. Tamilvanan said preliminary investigations suggested the killing was a result of rivalry between Left Wing Extremist (LWE) organisations. “To Maoists, the driver of the passenger vehicle was a supporter of People’s Liberation Front of India (PLFI), a breakaway faction of CPI-Maoist. Therefore, they hijacked the vehicle and killed him,” Tamilvanan said.

Visiting Chotanagra panchayat (village local self-government institution) in West Singhbhum District on December 2, Union Rural Development Minister Jairam Ramesh admitted lapses of the past but made it clear that the implementation of the development plan in Saranda forest area would be keenly monitored by the Centre so that it could be a model for other forest regions that had turned CPI-Maoist hubs in Jharkhand and States like Chhattisgarh, Odisha, West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh, reports The Telegraph. “I will make it a point to visit Jharkhand frequently .....This is a crucial project and the blueprint will be replicated in other States,” the Minister said. He added that the Centre’s Saranda action plan would be implemented in all 56 villages in six gram panchayats within the forest area, accounting for over 36,000 people.

Ten persons, including eight Policemen, were killed and two Policemen were injured when Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres attacked the convoy of MP and former Jharkhand Speaker Inder Singh Namdhari, in Latehar District in Jharkhand on December 3, The Times of India reported. Namdhari, however, escaped unhurt. The attack took place when the MP was returning from a function. Namdhari’s escort vehicle was caught in the blast but his car was able to speed away. "Maoists triggered an IED blast and then opened fire on the security vehicle which was following Namdhari's car at Ladu More in the district," Director General of Police G S Rath said. Six policemen, including assistant sub-inspector Bhim Tudu, and two civilians were killed on the spot, Latehar Superintendent of Police (SP) B D Sharma added.

Union Rural Development Minister Jairam Ramesh on December 4 said there were "liberated" zones in the country dominated by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), corroborating the Maoists’ claims that in west Jharkhand and south Chhattisgarh, the State's writ doesn't run, reports The Times of India. "In the heart of the country, these two places are liberated zones. Our officers - be it deputy commissioners, block development officers or anganwadi workers and health employees - don't venture into these places of Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh. The public distribution system is not working," said the rural development minister, who was in Jharkhand to review projects in Saranda forest in West Singhbhum District. "We will develop all 56 villages in the Saranda forest as model villages. We will replicate it in other areas like Jungle Mahal in West Singhbhum and Abujhmad in Chhattisgarh. The Union government will spend Rs 277 crore for development work in Saranda, which includes construction of roads measuring 140 kilometres," said Ramesh. "It is because of non-functioning of post offices and banks in Maoist-dominated areas of Jharkhand, I have allowed the state government to make cash payment to beneficiaries of schemes under MGNREGA. I am hopeful that now when the workers will get cash payment, more people will come forward for work," he added.
