At least 25 tribals were killed and 40 others sustained injuries in a landmine blast triggered by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres near Eklagoda village, in the jurisdiction of Arabore police station of Dantewada district on February 28. However, there has been no official confirmation on the fatalities so far. Unofficial reports indicate that over 50 persons were killed in the attack. Telegraph reports that more than 200 tribals were returning from an anti-Maoist Salwa Judum meeting in two trucks and a bus when the Maoists detonated a landmine, blowing up one of the vehicles. Director-General of Police, O.P. Rathore, said the victims, mostly tribals, were returning home after attending a Salwa Judum meeting. As their convoy approached Eklagoda around 11.30 a.m., the Maoists exploded the landmine and subsequently opened fire on two other vehicles and reportedly abducted nearly 120 villagers. Chief minister Raman Singh said the Maoists have entered Orissa along with their hostages after crossing the Sabri river. He added that "the security personnel and villagers attending the Salwa Judum meetings had been strictly ordered to travel only by foot," he said, adding that the size of the group could have forced the villagers to opt for heavy vehicles. The anti-Maoist campaign, the Chief Minister added, would continue despite the attack. "The government will redesign the strategy and give a new direction to the campaign," he observed, describing the act as "desperate and cowardly".
