Director General of Police (DGP) Prakash Mishra on September 2 rejected the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) demand of withdrawing Border Security Force (BSF) camps from Chitrakonda area in Malkangiri District, reports The Indian Express. The DGP said the Maoists triggered a landmine killing four BSF troopers on August 27 out of frustration as the Government had not withdrawn the BSF as per their demand. The Maoists hands are tied due to presence of BSF in the area, the DGP claimed. Odisha's Home Secretary V K Saxena and DGP Mishra reviewed the ongoing anti-Maoist operations in Southern Districts of Koraput, Malkangiri, Nabarangpur and Rayagada six days after the killing of BSF troopers.

Union Minister of Home Affairs (UMHA) Sushilkumar Shinde will meet top officials of the nine Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)-affected States this month-end to review counter-Maoist operations and development initiatives on the ground, reports The Times of India on September 5. The chief secretaries and DGPs of Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Jharkhand, Bihar, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh will brief the Ministry of Home Affairs on the Maoist situation in their respective States and discuss the need to revisit operational strategies. The progress of ongoing development works in the Maoist-infested areas will also be reviewed. Shinde is also expected to take stock of the Centrally-sponsored special schemes, including Integrated Action Plan (IAP), being implemented in most backward regions of the nine States. The Government had recently admitted that the some of the attacks carried out by Maoists in the past were successful due to security forces' failure to adhere to basic policing tactics. "An analysis of recent Naxal attacks discloses that the attacks could succeed mainly due to failure of adherence to basic policing tactics and practices by some of the state police forces," Union Minister of State for Home Affairs R P N Singh had told Parliament. There were 285 incidents of Naxal violence between May and July, in which 117 people lost their lives. Of the deceased, 47 were killed in Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand (37) and Bihar (15).

Nearly 10,000 children, including girls, have been "recruited" by Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) across Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Bihar and Jharkhand to serve as intelligence gatherers or perform chores as cooks and couriers, reports The Times of India. Though these minor recruits — mostly aged between 10 to 15 — don't carry arms, they are given the basic training to handle weapons. While around 3,000-4,000 children alone stand enrolled into "bal sangham" in Chhattisgarh and Odisha, the young hands working for Maoists in Jharkhand and Bihar are organized under 'bal dasta'. The modus operandi of recruiting these minors involves prevailing upon the local tribal families to "give up" one of their children to the CPI-Maoist, by highlighting displacement issues and "police atrocities on their brethren". Usually, the villagers have little choice but to oblige. Not only this, if the children stage an escape back to their homes, their families face a violent reprisal from the Maoists. Intelligence sources told TOI that the main job of the child recruits is to gather information for the Maoists. Bal sangham in the Dandkaranya region has been operational since 1995. In Odisha, the recruitments are mainly undertaken in Koraput and Malkangiri Districts. The Chasi Mulia Adivasi Sangh, a Maoist front organisation, had recently recruited and inducted several children in Narayanpatna Police Station area of Koraput. In Bihar, the erstwhile Maoist Communist Centre (MCC), now merged into CPI-Maoist, had been recruiting children between eight-14 for its "bal dasta". The CPI-Maoist continues to draft children mainly from Districts like Aurangabad, Rohtas, Kaimur and East Champaran. In Jharkhand, the recruitment of children has been reported from Palamu, Chatra, Lohardagga and Latehar Districts.

In a move to gain control over the rich bauxite mining zones of Niyamgiri area of Rayagada District and Karlapat area of Kalahandi District, the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) created a ‘special division’ for these areas to prevent the mining companies to explore and exploit the resources, reports The Pioneer on September 20. Earlier, the Maoists were using the jungles of Kalahandi and Nuapada Districts as their corridor to move out from Chhattisgarh, but now they are concentrating in these areas with a full-fledged division. Recently, the Maoist in Odisha also reorganised their State-level Committee and, in absence of any Odia leading the team, its leadership has gone to Maoists from Chhattisgarh and Andhra Pradesh. Nikhil from Chhattisgarh and Krishna from Andhra Pradesh are now taking the lead with around 80 to 100 cadres in the State. Now, the Bargarh-Balangir-Mahasamund, Nuapada, Sambalpur-Deogarh and Kalinga Divisions have been set up under the Odisha State Organising Committee.

Posters purportedly circulated by Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) in Bargarh District’s Paikmal area on September 24 threatened to prosecute former Minister and Member of Legislative Assembly (MLA), Padampur, Bijay Singh Bariha and Bargarh District Collector Bhabagrahi Mishra in "praja courts" (Peoples’ Court) for their "corrupt" practices, reports The Times of India. The Maoists have accused the duo of hatching a conspiracy to handover Gandhamardan hills, supposed to have huge bauxite reserves, to foreign companies for their own monetary gains. One of the two messages, displayed in an under-construction restaurant in Paikmal town, less than 200 metres from the Paikmal Police Station, charged Bariha of exploiting poor people in the name of caste. The other poster at Jamset chowk on Paikmal-Nuapada road accused the District Collector of accepting bribe and indulging in corruption in the implementation of Sarva Siksha Abihyan (SSA) (Education for All) and Public Distribution System (PDS).

All 16 CCTV cameras at Malkangiri District Sub-jail in Odisha are lying defunct for past one year, reports The Times of India on September 27. Sub-jail Superintendent Gopinath Chowdhury said "We have informed the higher-ups about non-functioning of the cameras, but they are yet to be repaired." The cameras were installed in 2010 to increase surveillance and check untoward incidents on the jail premises. By mid-2012, these developed snag and no longer serve their purpose. The security at the Sub-jail, which houses a large number of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres, has come under the scanner in the wake of possible Maoist attacks to rescue cadres, languishing in jails across the State. The Sub-jail is also grappling with staff shortage. The posts of a Sub-Assistant jailor and three warders are lying vacant for over one year. Officials said while the intake capacity of the prison was increased from 89 to 308 in 2012, adequate staff has not been posted yet. "Given the number of Maoists lodged in the jail, we need at least two more platoons of armed police force," the jail superintendent added.
