Chhattisgarh Chief Minister (CM) Bhupesh Baghel alleged a political conspiracy behind the 2013 Maoist incident that led to the death of the entire state leadership of the Congress, reports The New Indian Express on May 25. CM Baghel, paying his respects to the deceased during the Jhiram Shraddhanjali Diwas, reiterated his government’s commitment to get to the bottom of the case. Chhattisgarh CM, Baghel told reporters “8 years ago, on May 25, 2013, several Congress leaders lost their lives after their convoy got attacked by Naxals. It was our Congress government at the Centre in 2013 that had handed over the investigation to National Investigation Agency (NIA) at that time. However, due to pressure created by the current Central government, neither the NIA nor the State Government is allowed to investigate upon the matter.” The NIA and the State Government have been at loggerheads over the investigation of the attack. Within a day of assuming charge, the Congress government in Chhattisgarh had announced a Special Investigative Team (SIT) to look into the incident in 2013.

State Government claimed that its strategy of establishing camps of SFs in Naxal [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] affected areas of Bastar has pushed CPI-Maoist cadres to a very limited zone and facilitated development works in the region, reports The New Indian Express on May 25. Most of the camps were set up in inaccessible and remote areas where development remained secluded. However, after setting up these camps, the recent construction of roads is widely visible. Taking on the Naxals in their own style, SFs had decided to establish camps inside dense forests which were earlier unapproachable. These camps have been set up after pursuing a carefully chalked out strategy where each camp can have access to others in time of distress. The establishment of these advanced camps has restricted movement of the CPI-Maoist cadres in these areas. These camps have facilitated construction of roads, bridges, culverts and other infrastructure in the areas dominated by tribals, thereby giving them access to development schemes. Frustrated with the establishment of camps, the Naxals often make futile attempts to target these infrastructure facilities and attempt to create misunderstanding among villagers and trick them to go against the SFs. New avenues of communication and dialogue are getting opened, leading to a constructive partnership between the villagers and the administration, said a statement issued by the Chhattisgarh State Government.
