A group of armed cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) vandalized the office of the Kerala Forest Development Corporation (KFDC) at Kambamala estate under Thalappuzha Police Station limits in Wayanad District of Kerala on September 28, reports The Hindu. As many as six armed Maoists barged into the office and broke the glass door panels of the reception counter of the office, according to KFDC officials. They destroyed furniture, computers, a photocopy machine, a printer, and a phone kept at the reception counter. The group fled after sticking posters demanding that better houses be provided to the workers of the Kambamala tea estate plantation, the officials said. They shouted slogans demanding better houses for the estate workers, who are reportedly living under asbestos sheds. Posters in Malayalam and Tamil on behalf of the CPI-Maoist Kabani Area Committee read: ‘Distribute plantations to landless workers and tribal people; join the armed rebellion to escape from the wretched lives in the estate lanes to be an owner of plantations." According to the Police, no one was injured in the attack which took place at around 1 p.m. [IST]. Later on, combing operation by Thunder Bolt commandos was launched as per the orders of Superintendent of Police (SP) Padam Singh who rushed to the spot.
