Jharkhand Director General of Police (DGP), DK Pandey expressed confidence that Left Wing Extremism (LWE) in Jharkhand is on its last legs and it would be wiped out soon, reports The Pioneer on December 17. He also claimed that the menace has been controlled 80 per cent and mentioned that the time is suitable for ending it. "Eighty percent of extremism here has been contained, curbed and finished. Extremism in Jharkhand is to be essentially understood and thought of in right context and not in any way outlandish one. Here its dimension is different,” said the DGP. He also cited an incident of arson which took place in Chatra District where four vehicles of NTPC were put on fire by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres last week. DGP said this arson was carried out by a group of Bihar led by Karu Yadav. Top Maoists’ leaders have pushed him in here to create disturbance. "Jharkhand police will abort their nefarious and evil designs. Our police have also re-drawn its strategy to checkmate and fail and foil the plan of the Maoists. They will be contained and their sinister designs will be smashed” added the DGP. He also said Maoists are making all out efforts to sneak in Jharkhand from Bihar and Odisha side of borders. "Some have come here too but our men are after them. Days are not far off when they will be neutralised them completely. We need to further tune in our intelligence. It has to be smart and pin pointed. It will render the lives of the Maoists further miserable as our police are reaching out in those areas which some time back were a forbidden one. Our foot steps are everywhere. Those outlaws too hear our sounds of boots,” said the DGP. “We seek people’s cooperation. We know Maoists base has eroded completely. They are not getting any big support from the people which they used to command in the past. I ask people to help police fighting these criminals with clinical precision,” he added.

The State Government is worried over the exclusion of Keonjhar and Mayurbhanj Districts from the list of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)-affected zones as the problem of Left-Wing Extremism (LWE) is dynamic in nature, reports The Pioneer on December 29.With the Government of India excluding six Districts of Ganjam, Gajapati, Dhenkanal, Jajpur, Mayurbhanj and Keonjhar from the Security Related Expenditure (SRE) Districts, as these Districts are seen as “Maoist-free zones”, the State Government has expressed concern. Looking at the threat of Maoists, the State Home Department has requested the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to include both the Districts once again in the list. The MHA has excluded both the tribal zones, which was infested with Maoists earlier, however movement of Maoists are being occasionally reported in these neighbouring Districts of West Bengal. Maoists are moving from place to place and their movement is causing worry for the State Government, which has been facing the Maoists for quite some years. Due to shortage of Central Security Forces, deployment of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) is not there in Mayurbhanj and Keonjhar though both are border zones. Only 16 battalions of Central Security Forces are deployed in the LWE affected areas of the State.
