Jharkhand (Maoist Insurgency): Timeline (Terrorist Activities) -2017

Several Naxal [Left Wing Extremist (LWE)] groups in Jharkhand were reported to have incurred losses to the tune of INR 800 million said a top Police officer on January 2 at Ranchi District, reports Times of India. The Naxal groups are desperate ever since the Narendra Modi-led Government had decided to demonetize INR 500 and 1000 currency notes from the midnight of November 8, 2016, which had an adverse impact on the activities of Naxal groups in the State, said the Additional Director General (ADG), Jharkhand, R K Mallick. Quoting an intelligence report, he added, at least INR 800 millioncash of the Naxal groups has thus been destroyed due to demonetisation. The Naxal outfits have weakened as their major economic system was destroyed post-demonetisation, which prompted the Naxals to indulge in looting cash in desperation, going against the Maoist ideology, Mallick claimed. However, the State Police was prepared to foil all their nefarious design, he said.Responding to a query, ADG said as per an intelligence report, the Naxals used to collect INR 1.40 billion in the form of levy three years ago but it had come down to INR 1 Billion owing to intensified anti-naxal operation launched by the Security Forces (SFs) during last couple of years. The Naxal groups including the Communist party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), however, were reported to have succeeded in exchanging old currency notes into new currencies worth INR 200 million with the help of their over-ground workers and sympathisers as well as by threatening poor villagers and farmers, he said. He said around 100 incidents would have taken place across Jharkhand, where the LWEs had tried to convert the old currency notes forcibly through banks, but could not succeed due to vigilant State Police. He said 37 Naxals had been killed while 35 surrendered during 1546 special campaign launched against them by the SFs last year, claiming that the situation had worsened to such an extent at one time that LWE outfits were recruiting poor farmers and villagers forcibly to enhance their strength. A huge resentment was prevailing among the common man due to their bullying approach, he said, adding the development work being carried out by the Government also restricted Naxals, who were left with no option but to leave the State.
