PTI reports that three Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel, including an officer, were killed in a landmine blast triggered by cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) in the MV-66 village area of Malkangiri District on November 13. The blast took place when a van carrying the CRPF personnel was on its way from Kalimela to Gompagunda probably to pick up ration, the Malkangiri Superintendent of Police Satyabrata Bhoi said. The landmine was planted at a culvert and exploded when the van passed over it, he said. CRPF Deputy Commandant Bhupinder Singh was among the three slain CRPF personnel. The attack is believed to be part of the Maoist strategy to restrict movement of the Security Forces ahead of their proposed offensive in the region.

If Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) halted their violence, the Government would respond in 72 hours and order a review of all corporate memorandums of understanding (MoUs) in Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Orissa and south Bihar, the Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram has promised, according to Hindustan Times. Calling "Operation Green Hunt", a proposed armed offensive against Maoists, "a pure invention of the media", Chidambaram said, "There is no Operation Green Hunt. Name the officer who has said there is and I will take action against him." In an interview with Tehelk a magazine, Chidambaram said categorically, "I haven't seen a single paper or document in the home ministry with the phrase 'Operation Green Hunt'. It's a pure "invention of the media." He said the State Police, assisted by paramilitary forces and intelligence, would in the months ahead "reassert control over areas where, regrettably, the civil administration has lost control". The minister denied that the Government was calling in the Army or the Rashtriya Rifles to flush out Maoist guerrillas in Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Orissa. Asked why the Government was not taking tribals into confidence and isolating Maoists instead of raising a military offensive against them, Chidambaram said, "Instead of arguing over who is responsible for the violence or who should stop the violence, why don't the Maoists heed my appeal and say, 'yes, we will halt the violence and let us hear the home minister's response'." "Give me two or three days to respond, because I need to consult others in government, both at the Centre and the states. Once they say, they will halt the violence and they actually do, between their statement and my response which will surely come in about 72 hours," he added. "You will find that I am in a position to respond in a manner where violence can be ended once and for all and development can take place, and talks can also be held with the (Communist Party of India) CPI-Maoists. But the first step is for them to say, 'we halt the violence'," the Home Minister said in the interview to be published in its latest issue. Asked whether the Government was taking control of mineral-rich land and securing it for private companies through MoUs, he responded by saying, "The MoUs have been signed over a period of time with different governments, long before Maoist violence rose to this level. Nevertheless, I am prepared to request Prime Minister (Manmohan Singh) to freeze the MoUs and order a comprehensive review of all MoUs that have been signed in Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Orissa and south Bihar before deciding which MoUs should be implemented - with or without modification. I am prepared to request the prime minister to do that." He said he was ready to facilitate talks on forest rights, industrialisation, land acquisition and development with State Governments.

One of the two CMAS cadres killed in the Police firing was identified as K. Singhana. The identity of the other was yet to be ascertained. Koraput District Collector Gadadhar Parida said the firing occurred around 2.45 pm (IST). Some 300 CMAS cadres had gheraoed the Police Station demanding removal of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel from the area. They were opposed to the combing operation of Security Force personnel against the Maoists. It was alleged that they also entered into a scuffle with the CRPF personnel posted near the Police Station. Some CMAS members broke open the lock of the main gate of the Police Station and rushed inside. They tried to snatch an AK47 and an SLR rifle held by the sentries of the Police Station and run away. During this tussle to snatch the firearm, one rifle went off and the bullet hit the inspector in charge of the Police Station in his leg. The sentries posted on the rooftop of the Police Station fired at the persons who were trying to escape snatching the firearms. As per initial reports more than 20 rounds were fired. Two of the CMAS activists died on the spot. Before this incident, insurgents had cut down trees to block the Bandhugaon-Narayanpatna road since morning.

The SFs arrested 15 persons from a house in Jangdibalsa of Bandhugaon block bordering Narayanpatna on November 28. Superintendent of Police (SP) Deepak Kumar Chouhan on November 29 said out of the arrested persons five were suspected to be hardcore Maoist cadres. Chouhan said that while most of the arrested persons were localites, two of them -- Tapan Mishra and Padmanav Sahu -- were from outside the District. According to him, the duo was staying at the Maoist camp that was raided. The SFs had acted on specific intelligence to conduct the raid. While most persons related to the camp had escaped, Police had managed to detain some, he said. Police had released the innocent villagers after preliminary enquiry and interrogation. 15 persons with Maoist links were arrested. The SP also displayed the articles and arms of Maoists seized during the raid. During the raid, 68 pairs of Maoist uniforms, six SMC guns, five SBBL guns, approximately six kilograms of gun powder, 10 electrical detonators, camera flash, wire, a wireless communication set, four rounds of ball ammunitions, banners, posters and literatures were seized. The SP said the evidences found from the spot linked Chasi Mulai Adivasi Sangh (CMAS) with the Maoists. Some of the arrested persons were also part of the CMAS. The seizure of SMC guns from the Maoist camp was a cause of concern as these guns are used for mass destruction, Chouhan added.
