Several Naxal [Left Wing Extremist (LWE)] groups in Jharkhand were reported to have incurred losses to the tune of INR 800 million said a top Police officer on January 2 at Ranchi District, reports Times of India. The Naxal groups are desperate ever since the Narendra Modi-led Government had decided to demonetize INR 500 and 1000 currency notes from the midnight of November 8, 2016, which had an adverse impact on the activities of Naxal groups in the State, said the Additional Director General (ADG), Jharkhand, R K Mallick. Quoting an intelligence report, he added, at least INR 800 millioncash of the Naxal groups has thus been destroyed due to demonetisation. The Naxal outfits have weakened as their major economic system was destroyed post-demonetisation, which prompted the Naxals to indulge in looting cash in desperation, going against the Maoist ideology, Mallick claimed. However, the State Police was prepared to foil all their nefarious design, he said.Responding to a query, ADG said as per an intelligence report, the Naxals used to collect INR 1.40 billion in the form of levy three years ago but it had come down to INR 1 Billion owing to intensified anti-naxal operation launched by the Security Forces (SFs) during last couple of years. The Naxal groups including the Communist party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), however, were reported to have succeeded in exchanging old currency notes into new currencies worth INR 200 million with the help of their over-ground workers and sympathisers as well as by threatening poor villagers and farmers, he said. He said around 100 incidents would have taken place across Jharkhand, where the LWEs had tried to convert the old currency notes forcibly through banks, but could not succeed due to vigilant State Police. He said 37 Naxals had been killed while 35 surrendered during 1546 special campaign launched against them by the SFs last year, claiming that the situation had worsened to such an extent at one time that LWE outfits were recruiting poor farmers and villagers forcibly to enhance their strength. A huge resentment was prevailing among the common man due to their bullying approach, he said, adding the development work being carried out by the Government also restricted Naxals, who were left with no option but to leave the State.

The Jharkhand Police are now concentrating their offensive on the Communist party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) ‘area commander’ Kanhu Munda in East Singhbhum District, reports The Telegraph on January 9. To revive people's confidence in the administration, Police have decided to hold a crime meeting at Gian village in Ghatshila subdivision. East Singhbhum Rural Superintendent of Police (SP), Shailendra Burnwal said they had chosen Naxal [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)]-hit Gian for the meeting because Kanhu Munda hailed from the village. He added, "We are already carrying out anti-insurgency operations in Ghurabandha and Gian. The crime meeting at Kanhu Munda's village will surely make a difference among people who may have been associated with the Naxalites because they are petrified of Munda. Police sources said there were four to five armed naxals in Munda's squad. "We are working on a plan in which villagers will no longer co-operate with the CPI-Maoist like they have been doing so far," SP Burnwal said. Munda's squad is active in the Ghurabandha region, which shares border with Mayurbhanj District of Odisha. Police will also hold a janata durbar (public hearing) for villagers of Gian. "At the durbar, local problems - including the ones that have cropped up owing to Naxalite activities - will be heard and resolved, if possible," the SP said.

Union Home Minister (UHM) Rajnath Singh held a review meeting on Naxalism situation in Jharkhand with senior Police officials of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and the State Police at Eastern Sector Headquarters of CRPF in Ranchi District on January 8, reports Daily Pioneer. A senior Police official told, “A demand was raised before the Union Minister of Home Affairs to increase the strength of Security Forces (SFs) in the state to carry out anti-Naxal operations in the state, replying to which, he said that the demand will be taken up only after UP Election.” The State Police also requested the UHM to recommence the fund allocation for setting up of Special Task Force (STF) against terrorism which has been discontinued for quite some time. With security advisor K Vijay Kumar and Chief Minister (CM) Raghubar Das in tow, Singh claimed that the Centre's demonetization move has broken the backs of banned LWE organizations like People's Liberation Front of India (PLFI) and CPI-Maoist. Maintaining that dialogue was the only means to resolve differences, the minister urged armed groups to come to the discussion table and place their demands instead of 'stopping the development of the poor', adds The Times of India. Singh, who inaugurated the Eastern Sector Headquarters of Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) in the state capital, said increasing the 'technological and core competence' of the forces is the need of the hour. The new Eastern Sector Headquarters in Ranchi's Tiril spreads over 158 acres. This new headquarters has been relocated from Bihar for better synergy, CISF Director General OP Singh said. The meeting was also attended by Chief Secretary Rajbala Verma, DGP DK Pandey, and Home Secretary SKG Rahate along with Inspector General (IG), CRPF, Sanjay Anand Latkar and senior officials of state Police.

The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), on July 26, claimed that area controlled by Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) has "shrunk in three states in last two and a half years", reports DNA. Rajiv Rai Bhatnagar, the CRPF Director General (DG), however, admitted that South Bastar remains to be an area of problem. He said, "There is substantial decline in areas controlled by Naxals in Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal. Disturbance in these areas are very less. Our major concern is in South Bastar of Chhattisgarh." He said that after the attack, in which 25 men of the CRPF died in April in Sukma area, the force has changed their strategy to deal with Maoists. "In all ten left wing affected extremism states CRPF is deployed and working in close collaboration with state police forces and other central agencies," he said. Further he stressed that in last two and half years, there has been an overall reduction in violence and increase in surrenders, apprehensions and neutralization of Maoists. It is a reflection of efficacy of our operations and capacity building measures adopted by the force. He also said that to deal with Naxals in Bastar, CRPF is raising one Bastariya battalion comprising of local tribals of south Bastar having good knowledge of local language, terrain and modus operandi of Maoists outfits. "It'll provide tactical advantage to the force in fighting Maoists and also bring the tribals to mainstream," he said. He said that in last year from July 20, 2016 to July 20, 2017, the force neutralized 51 Maoists, apprehended 1,111, facilitated 834 surrenders. The force managed to recover 562 arms and 1180 improvised explosive device. Due to the pressure mounted on the Maoists through sustained operations, 834 Maoists surrendered including the important Maoist leaders Kundan Pahan, Member of Jharkhand Regional Committee (JRC), Nakul Yadav, Member of Bihar Regional Committee (BRC), Kanhu Ram Munda, Secretary, Bihar Jharkhand Odisha Border Regional Committee (BJOBRC) and Dimba Pahan, Member of Jharkhand Regional Committee (JRC).
