Seven Maoist-affected States will soon launch a joint offensive along with the Centre, PTI reported. A consensus to this effect reportedly emerged at a meeting of the Chief Ministers of Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Orissa, Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh, the Jharkhand Governor and a representative from West Bengal, sources in the Union Ministry for Home Affairs (MHA) said on August 18.

ANI reports that the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres in Bihar, where 26 of the 38 Districts have been declared as drought-hit, have been guarding water resources in their villages to prevent from being misused by neighbouring villagers. The Maoists in Gaya District have entrusted themselves the job so that they have enough water to irrigate their land. "We are guarding water as there is shortage of water to irrigate the land. We also need water for our animals. Neighbouring villagers will take the water and we will be deprived of it," said an unnamed Maoist.

The Bihar Government has sought the inclusion of four more Maoist insurgency-affected Districts under the Security Related Expenditure (SRE), The Hindu reports. Apart from 15 out of the 38 revenue Districts covered under the scheme at present, similar treatment is required for four more revenue Districts affected by the insurgency, the Inspector General of Police (Operations) S. K. Bharadwaj said on August 21. The State Government had proposed inclusion of four more Districts - Lakhisarai, Munger, Buxar and Sheikhpura - in the SRE scheme. The Centre has, however, decided to cover Munger only, Bharadwaj added. “We have submitted a fresh proposal to this effect,” official sources said, adding that Saharsa also ought to also be included in the list of Districts covered under the SRE. Under the SRE scheme, the expenditure incurred on security is reimbursed by the Centre. The CPI-Maoist has reportedly made their presence felt in 31 Districts of Bihar. Bharadwaj, who also in-charge of anti-Naxal cell in the Bihar Police headquarters, said that two of the three proposed India Reserve (IR) battalions have been made operational and the process of land acquisition for the third IR battalion at Valmikinagar in the West Champaran District (close to the India-Nepal border) was underway. Official sources said the recruitment of Police personnel for the two IR battalions - one at the Bihar Military Police-4 (Dumraon) and another at the BMP-12 (Saharsa) - was almost complete and the constables are undergoing training.

Around 50 extremists swooped on Akri village and set off dynamites to blow up the community centre building, Police said on August 25. No casualty was reported as the building was empty when the Maoists triggered the blast. However, Neelmani said that about 100 suspected insurgents raided a village in Aurangabad district of Bihar state and blew up a building used for weddings. Hindustan Times quoted Aurangabad SP Nishant Kumar Tiwari as saying that a named First Information Report (FIR) has been lodged with the Dev Police station in connection with the blast, which was aimed at making Maoists presence felt in the pockets of their influence. The name of Vikas Yadav, a self-styled ‘zonal commander’ of the outfit, has figured in the blast, he said.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) on August 25 called off the 48-hour bandh (shut down) in five States - Jharkhand, Orissa, Bihar, West Bengal and Chhattisgarh. In a press statement issued through short message service, Maoist politburo member Kishanji stated that the indefinite bandh was called off after Anilji and Kartik were produced in a court at Ranchi, Capital of Jharkhand, by the Jharkhand Police on August 25, The Hindu reported. Times of India quoted Kishanji as saying, “We had called the bandh to force the police (Jharkhand) to admit that they had arrested two of our comrades and produce them in Ranchi court before 5pm on Tuesday. Since they produced them an hour before 5pm, we are calling off the strike.’’ A 48-hour bandh was called on August 24 in these five States as Kishanji had claimed that Purnendu Mukherjee alias Anilji, politburo member of the CPI-Maoist, and Kartik, a central committee member, were arrested from near the Patna (capital of Bihar) junction while boarding a train on August 18, but were not produced in court.

The Maoists attacked the Ismailpur railway station under Gaya-Mughalsarai rail section and abducted station manager and other railway staff on August 25, reports Times of India. According to Neelmani some 10-15 extremists attacked the station and indulged in vandalism by breaking the signal system.

Before leaving, they warned of train movement as a result train movement could not be resumed in that section.

Times of India reports that more than 50 Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres set ablaze two mobile phone towers at Mathurapur village under Guraru Police station area and Gurua in the morning of August 26.
