At least three Communist party of India (CPI-Maoist) cadres were killed when Security Forces (SFs), including Commando Battalion for Resolute Action (COBRA) personnel, attacked Maoist ‘zonal commander’ Ajay Mahto’s 35 cadre-strong squad at a place between rugged hills and dense forests near Telaiya village in Hazaribagh District on July 1, reports Telegraph. “We fired around 400-500 rounds. They (Maoists) retaliated with 200-300 rounds. The gunfight continued for two hours and three Maoists were killed,” Superintendent of Police Pankaj Kamboj said. He added that one of the deceased Maoists had been identified as veteran leader Ramji Manjhi, but Police had failed to recover any of the bodies. “The rebels managed to escape with their dead comrades, taking advantage of Vishnugarh’s border with Bokaro.” After the Maoists fled, a combing operation in the area yielded INR 6.90 lakh in cash, a large numbers of uniforms, utensils, food grain, medicines, a 9-mm pistol, four live cartridges and 14 empty cartridges of AK-47.

The SF also recovered around three tones of explosives, chemicals and parts of weapons. The recoveries also included books on making IEDs, chemical formulas and over 20 sacks of ammonium nitrates and other materials. The SFs also recovered a blueprint of May 3, 2011 Lohardaga serial IED blasts in which 11 Police personnel were killed. "The blueprint was recovered from the indigenous IED factory where real time testing of explosives was done," said Jharkhand Police spokesperson S. N. Pradhan. The camp, considered the backbone of Naxalism [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] in Bihar and Jharkhand, often remained guarded with over 100 Maoists and more than 500 IED were planted on the routes to the camp. The camp which falls under the Koel Sankh Zone, and spreads through Palamu, Garhwa, Latehar, Lohardaga, Gumla, Gaya, Aurangabad and Northern Districts of Chhattisgarh is considered the richest of the Maoists zones in Bihar and Jharkhand.

Telegraph reports that the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) on July 8 dubbed the State Government’s move of amending the Chhotanagpur Tenancy Act (CNT) and the Santhal Pargana Tenancy Act (SPT) as a “conspiracy against the poor” and appealed to all the tribals to oppose the move. The Maoists, in a release issued to the media in Dumka District, stated that the proposed amendment by the Government was part of a greater conspiracy planned by the State to help facilitate bureaucrats, industrialists and other outsiders to usurp tribal lands. “There has been a rampant violation of the CNT and the SPT acts and a large portion of tribal lands have already been grabbed. Now, by bringing in the amendments, the State wants to legalise the purchase and sale of ancestral lands that had been brought into effect by the British government to safeguard the rights of the tribals,” Maoist spokesperson Sonotji was quoted as saying in the release. “The tribals should hold rallies, seminars and public meetings to oppose the state’s move. The newly elected panchayat (village level local self-Government institution) representatives will have a vital role to play in opposing the proposed amendment,” the release said.

The Daily Pioneer reports that in the wake of growing fatalities of Central Reserve Police Force Security (CRPF) Personnel due to Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) blasts by the Left Wing Extremists (LWE), the Security Forces (SFs) formulated a new policy to counter the menace. Its salient features include creation of an IED map and its inclusion in the Key Incident Tracking System (KITS) for ready reference by the Force’s commanders. The IED mapping also entails classification of vulnerable areas into red, green and yellow zones which will be based on the analysis of the incidents and the inputs gathered on the IED situation. "There is a plan to set up an exclusive first-ever school for providing training in handling of IEDs for the country's largest paramilitary force," said an official. According to the plan, army personnel will train a few officers and troopers who are operating in Naxal-hit areas and they would subsequently create a pool of experts in prevention, detection, neutralisation, destruction and disposal of IEDs. Chhattisgarh, Odisha and Jharkhand are the worst affected States in terms of landmines being planted by the Maoists. Various IED tracing devices, including 'dip sticks', used to detect hidden explosives, and sniffer dogs have failed to be foolproof and a number of patrol parties, both on foot and in vehicles, have fallen prey to these deadly explosive devices which are sometimes as heavy as 50 kilograms. According to official data, the IED’s have claimed lives of more than 105 troops in the last five years during anti-Naxal operations. The CRPF has recovered 1,547 sets of IEDs during 2006-11 and the numbers have been increasing over the years, the data added.

The Union Home Ministry decided to deploy two MI-17 helicopters in Jharkhand by next month, reports Times of India on July 10. In a high level meeting on July 8, the ministry decided that two multipurpose MI-17 helicopters be deployed in the State for assistance in anti-Naxalite [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] operations. Currently, the State has two Dhruv helicopters of the Border Security Force (BSF) for anti-Naxalite operations and another similar chopper, purchased by the State Government from the Police modernization funds, is under maintenance at Hindustan Aeronautics Limited Bangalore for the past six months. The BSF Dhruv helicopters are often used for survey and rescue operation during the anti-Naxalite operations.
