The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) have called for a 'bandh' (general shutdown strike) in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra on May 19 to protest the killings of two fellow women cadres in an encounter last month, reports Devdiscourse. The Maoists had put up banners in some villages in Etapalli Tehsil (revenue unit) of Gadchiroli on Wednesday (May 15) night, in which they gave the 'bandh' call, an official from Gadchiroli Superintendent of Police (SP) office said May 16. In the banners, the Maoists alleged that the killings of the women cadres-Ramco alias Kamla Narote and Shilpa Durva- by the Security Forces (SFs) on April 27 was an infringement of their constitutional rights. "The ultras said in the banners that as a mark of protest against the encounter killings, a 'bandh' should be observed in Gadchiroli on May 19," the official said.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) have claimed responsibility for the May 1 blast, set off by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED), in Kurkheda Tehsil (revenue unit) in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra that had killed 15 Security Force (SF) personnel and their driver, reports The Indian Express on May 18. A pamphlet, issued by western sub-zonal bureau of CPI-Maoist recently, claimed that the blast was carried out to avenge the “police atrocities” in last year’s Kasnasur ambush in which 40 Maoist cadres were killed in the incident. It also referred to the April 27 “fake” encounter of senior Maoist cadre Ramco Narote. Narote, a member of Gadchiroli’s divisional committee of CPI-Maoist, and her accomplice Shilpa Durva were killed in what the Police claimed to be a regular encounter near Gundurwahi village in Bhamragarh tehsil. The pamphlet also said that the government has put many “pro-people” and “intellectual leaders” in jail in the name of “urban Naxalism”. “The Brahminical, fascist government, led by Devendra Fadnavis, is milking Gadchiroli’s natural resources, like iron ore, after coming to power. When people oppose it, the police oppress them. Officials and police are creating hurdles in the way of tribals taking benefit of the PESA provisions,” the pamphlet reads. It adds “we will continue to oppose them tooth and nail”. The pamphlet also called upon people to observe a bandh (general shutdown strike) on May 19 called by the Naxals [Left Wing Extremists, LWEs] to protest against the April 27 encounter.

Around a dozen alleged Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres, in civil attire, visited Gurupalli village under Etapallitaluka (revenue sub-division) in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra, daring the local population to burn banners of their party in front of them, late evening on May 19 when Maoists had called a ‘bandh’ (general shutdown strike), reports The Times of India. Earlier, photographs of Gurupalli villagers making a bonfire of Maoist banners were circulated by the Police on social media. Superintendent of Police (SP), GadchiroliShaileshBalkawade, however, denied Maoists had threatened any villagers labelling the reported incident as a ‘fake propaganda’ and ‘fake news’ on social media. On the other hand, the incident was confirmed by activist Suresh Balsagre of JanhitvadiSanghatna from Etapalli. “This threatening of villagers did take place at Gurupalli on bandh day. The next day pamphlets were found at Jeveli, Dumme and adjoining villages which is a tell-tale sign that Maoists were present,” he said. The villagers of Gurupalli were also warned by the Maoists not to go for tendu (leaves of the DiospyrosMelonoxylon plant), collection the following day (May 20) until the issue was clear before them. The bandh was called against the April 27 encounter of ‘Divisional committee member (DVCM)’ RamkoNarote and Bhamragarh ‘area committee member, ACM’ ShilpaDhurva which the Maoists claimed were ‘extra-judicial’ killings.

Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres set ablaze two ‘jungle depots’, a road roller, blocking several internal roads, shutting markets, disrupting services of Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) buses, and also pasted banners and posters about the ‘bandh’ on May 19, in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra on May 19, reports The Times of India. The bandh had been called to protest the alleged ‘fake encounter’ killings of their Divisional Committee Member (DVCM) Ramko Narote and cadre Shilpa Dhurva on April 27 at Gundurwahi by C-60 commandos during an operation. In the banners and posters, the Maoists demanded clarification from the Police on the killings. Apart from Police, the Maoists also issued threats to the foresters, urging villagers to resist their work of cutting trees and bamboo, as “they are owned by the tribals”. The Maoists put up a number of banners in the early hours on May 19, throwing challenge to the Police stationed merely four kilometres away at Purada Police Station. The Maoists then headed towards the forest near Warbi (Chirpi), around seven kilometres away, where they set wood at the jungle depot on fire. The depot belonged to the Forest Labourers’ Co-operative Society, where wood from adjoining forests of Yedapar and Kurundi was collected. The Maoists blocked the road between Karamphata and Gurupalli in Etapalli taluka (revenue sub-division) by tying a banner across the road and also laying felled trees on the road. One side of the banner was tied to a vehicle which the Maoists had set ablaze some days ago. Police claimed this road blockade was later removed by villagers so vehicles could pass. Earlier in the morning, State Transport buses had returned to Etapalli depot from this place, but later resumed services till Alapalli. The Maoists later set ablaze a road roller at Gurupalli Road. The roller was engaged in road construction works. A jungle depot near Gurupalli was also set on fire. Maoist banners were also spotted at places in Bhamragarh taluka including at Kospundi phata near Tadgaon, Parlakota river bed and other places. The markets at different taluka places like Korchi in the north and south’s Etapalli, Alapalli and Bhamragarh remained shut.
