The surrendered Maoists include Ramji alias Bicchem Karam (24), ‘deputy commander’ of Udanti LOS (Local Organisation Squad) and Lakhmu Modiyam (32), ‘deputy commander’ of platoon no.2 of Maoists. They were carrying a reward of INR 300,000 each, IGP, Sundarraj said. He added that Lakkhu Telam (28) and Sangeeta Modiyami (25), members of platoon no. 2 under National Park area committee of Maoists, were carrying reward of INR 200,000 each. The three others identified as Ranjeeta Oyam (23), Rajkumari Yadav and Hunga Podiyami (24) were carrying reward of INR 100,000 each.
