A couple, identified as Deepeshwar Mehta and Dhaneshwari Devi, allegedly involved in illegal trade and supply of explosives to Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), were killed in an explosion under Padma Police Station area in Hazaribagh District on May 5, reports The Pioneer. The explosion was so strong that the two were blown into pieces. The incident took place when they were carrying explosives and other inflammable items into the forest for the Maoists. Hazaribagh Superintendent of Police (SP) Akhilesh Jha said “We had come to know about the involvement of the Mehta couple in this illegal trade and hence we had intensified the surveillance on them. It seems that the couple had got a whiff of our surveillance and probably in a hurry they began disposing off the explosives and in this process they got killed accidently.”

A huge cache of ammunition was recovered from Palkot area in Gumla District following an encounter with Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres on May 21, reports The Telegraph. Acting on a tip-off that Maoist ‘sub-zonal commander’ Dipakji was camping in the dense forests of Palkot, special teams, comprising State Police personnel and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel, were formed to corner the squad from all sides. As the Security Forces (SFs) neared the forests, the Maoists opened fire. The SFs also retaliated, forcing the Maoists to flee, leaving behind a huge quantity of ammunition. "We recovered 514 rounds of 7.62mm bullets, a hand grenade, Naxalite [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] literature, Police uniforms, backpacks and items of daily use from the encounter spot," said Gumla Superintendent of Police (SP) Bheemsen Tuti.

The Jharkhand High Court on May 22 asked the Cental Government to extend necessary assistance, both financial and human resources to the State for the development of the 21 Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)-affected Districts, reports The Times of India. A division bench comprising Chief Justice Virendra Singh and Justice PP Bhatt delivered the order in connection with the kidnapping of 35 children by Maoists in Gumla District in which the Chief Justice in his motion, treated news published in a vernacular daily on April 22 as Public Interest litigation (PIL) and notices were issued to the Central and State officials. In his affidavit, Jharkhand Director General of Police (DGP) DK Pandey submitted that 21 anti-Maoist operations spread over 98 days have been conducted in Gumla District to free the kidnapped children during which five children were rescued. Identifying Lohardaga, Gumla and Latehar as Maoist hotbeds, Pandey said the State was looking at Central assistance in terms of finance and human resources to set up seven camps in the area to facilitate development. The DGP submitted that though he had written to the Union Home Secretary in this connection on March 31, 2015, the latter was yet to respond. Advocate General Binod Poddar apprised the Court that the Centre has released INR 184.19 crore in 2013-14 and INR 340 crore for 2014-15 under the Integrated Action Plan (IAP) for 17 LWE- affected districts.

Joint forces launched massive anti-Naxal [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] operations, in the forests of Gumla and Lohardaga Districts on May 29, a week after Jharkhand High Court pulled up Police for failing to track 30 children who were allegedly abducted by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres last month, reports The Telegraph. Senior Police officers said the operations were part of the state government's continuing efforts to contain extremism.
