A 58-year-old woman, identified as Randaya Purti (58), was killed in an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) blast that took place in the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)-infested jungles of Kolhan near Maradiri village under the Goelkera Police Station limits in West Singhbhum District of Jharkhand on February 15, reports The New Indian Express. Randaya Purti had gone to collect firewood from the Kolhan jungles near Maradiri village when she stepped over an IED planted by the Maoists and got killed in the IED blast. The Maoists had distributed pamphlets in the villages adjacent to the Kolhan jungles, warning the villagers not to enter deep into the jungles as they had planted IEDs there to check on Security Forces (SFs) entering the jungles. The incident underscores the ongoing challenges faced by SFs in the region, as Maoists resort to using IEDs such as Pressure Cooker Modified Nitrate Mixture (PMNK) to target both security personnel and civilians.

Security Forces (SFs) destroyed a Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) camp after an exchange of fire with the Maoists on Gandhamardan Hill near Khandijharan village under Paikmal Police limits in Bargarh District of Odisha on February 23, reports The New Indian Express. Bargarh Superintendent of Police (SP) Prahalad Sahai Meena said, based on the intel about the presence of Maoists on Gandhamardan Hill, an anti-Naxal [Left Wing Extremism, LWE] operation was launched by a joint team of the Special Operations Group (SOG) and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) on February 21. "While the combing operation was underway, an exchange of fire took place between the security forces and the Maoists at around 8.30 a.m. on Friday [February 23]. Following the gun battle, our team searched the area and seized a number of Maoist articles.” Meena informed me that the entire Maoist camp was destroyed in the operation, but there were no casualties. During the search, the SFs recovered Improvised Explosive Devices (IED), eight bags, clothes, food, and other Maoist articles. “We seized some posters purportedly written by Maoists on a few occasions, including in the run-up to the Padampur bypoll in December 2022. However, there was no Maoist violence in Bargarh after the June 2021 encounter. Maoists often use Gandhamardan Hill, spanning over Bolangir and Bargarh districts, as a transit route between Odisha and Chhattisgarh,” the officer said. Sources said the ‘Bolangir-Bargarh and Mahasamund (BBM) division’ of the banned CPI-Maoist is operating along the Odisha-Chhattisgarh border.
