Union Minister of State for Home Affairs (MoSHA) Hansraj Gangaram Ahir blamed the Communist Party of India–Maoist (CPI-Maoist) for underdevelopment of tribals in the country while addressing media on December 16 in Ranchi District, reports, Times of India. He was attending the concluding part of three-day workshop on "LWE Theatre - Interstate operations and coordination' hosted by the CRPF, Ahir said that the living standard of tribals in most parts of the country is around 150 years behind that of our modern cities. "The Maoists have not allowed development work to penetrate to the far flung hamlets," he accused reiterating his government's commitment to wipe out Naxalism [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] of all forms from the country with full might."We don't want to use bullets against our own people and its better if they understand our language (Hum chahte hain ki goli nahi boli se baat bane) and get prepared to shun violence," he said. Ahir expressed disappointment over use of Central Auxiliary Police Forces (CAPF) for controlling Left Wing Extremism in different states. "If we are not compelled to use our forces within the mainland they can be engaged at the borders," he said. He took a stock of the situation prevailing in all ten states which includes Jharkhand, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Bengal, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Telangana and parts of Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh considered to be red corridor region of the country. "Our Central Minister Rajnath Singh has agreed to extend full cooperation in terms of financial support and assistance of the security forces in these states to ensure that the development work is not affected," he said. Ahir pointed finger to the fact that most of the Central Welfare schemes like Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna, extending loans under Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojna and Skill Development Programmes have failed to reach the tribal hamlets because of CPI- Maoist presence. "Construction of schools, health centres, railway, industry, irrigation projects and roads have also suffered because of presence of Maoists which has not just retarded government's effort for development but has deprived the tribals of facilities that they should enjoy as citizens of an independent nation," he said underlining the fact that everyone in the country has equal right to life and opportunities.

Police arrested two cadres of the Tritiya Prastuti Committee (TPC), a Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) splinter group, after a fierce gunbattle in a dense forest area of Herhanj in Latehar District on December 19, seizing, among others, an AK- 47 and an INSAS (Indian Small Arms System) rifle, two 3.3 and .315 guns and over 600 cartridges, reports The Telegraph. Preliminary inquiries suggest that the weapons had possibly been stolen from Police. Early this morning, Latehar Superintendent of Police (SP), Anoop Birtharay received a tip-off about a Tritiya Prastuti committee squad moving around in the dense forests of Herhanj, about 75 kilometres from the District headquarters and 175 kilometres from Ranchi. After verification, he formed special teams comprising the State Police and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) to take them on from multiple directions. Police sources said the rebels were cooking a meal, when Police zeroed in on them. The rebels were the first to open fire after which the Police retaliated. Finally, the rebels started to flee, leaving behind some of their weapons and essentials. "The arrested rebels, Chhotu Thakur and Manoj Ganju, both around 25 years of age, are being brought to Latehar district headquarters. They are being interrogated.

Peoples Liberation Front of India (PLFI) cadres gunned down one Pravin Kandulna (24) after accusing him of sexually abusing village girls in Kolebira of Simdega District on December 23, reports The Telegraph. Armed rebels led by one Vijay Dang, who claimed to be the new PLFI ‘area commander’, forced the youth to come out of his home at Tutikel village, located 40 kilometres from Simdega District headquarters. They took him half a kilometre away and killed him. "Our preliminary inquiries suggest the PLFI executed this killing to regain their foothold in the area. No one has so far complained that Kandulna used to sexually exploit girls. However, our investigations are on. Search operations too have been intensified," said Simdega Superintendent of Police (SP), Rajeev Ranjan Singh. PLFI is a splinter group of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist).

Giridih Police arrested two Jharkhand Prastuti Committee (JPC) cadres, including its Chief Nageshwar Ganju, from a forest under Sariya Police Station in Giridih District on December 26, reports Times of India. The other person arrested has been identified as Purushottam Ganju, who was the ‘sub-zonal commander’ and a close aide of Ganju. Security Forces (SFs) also recovered three land mines (each weighing between 2-2.5 Kilograms), a JPC letter pad and Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) literature from the cadres. Police said the duo was involved in at least 17 cases of levy collection, loot, dacoity and murders in Hazaribag and Chatra Districts. Ganju carried a reward of INR 500,000 on his head, Police added. "Based on inputs that the two accused were planning to meet some local youths in Dhawaiya forests area, we arrested them," Superintendent of Police(SP), Abhishek B Variar said. The SP added that the arrest was considered to be a big achievement as the accused revealed valuable information on Naxals [Left Wing Extremists (LWEs)] activities. "The duo was nabbed while they were delivering a speech to lure villagers in their group. At least 25-30 youths managed to escape in the dark", Sariya-BagodarSub-Divisional Police Officer(SDPO), Deepak Kumar Sharma said.
