"At least 43 mobile phone towers were destroyed in six states, i.e. Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh and Orissa by the Maoists till November this year," an unnamed MHA official said, adding, "The Naxals (left-wing extremists) are targeting the mobile phone towers as they believe that communication network is being frequently used by the Security agencies and their informers to launch operations against the Maoists." The report also said that in 2007, only six towers, including three in Chhattisgarh, two in Orissa and one in Maharashtra were destroyed by the Maoists. Just five such towers were attacked by the Maoists in 2006 which includes two in Andhra Pradesh and one each in Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh and Orissa.
