He is also responsible for forming a network in every nearby village. We have been warning people to not become police informers for money.

On March 5, the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) through posters have reportedly asked the tribals of Raighar area of Nabarangpur District in Odisha not to hand over their landed properties to Bengali people for agriculture and other purposes, reports sambadenglish.com. Several posters containing the warning of the Maoists surfaced in Haladi, Hatigaon, Kurabeda, Nakatisamada, Mundibeda, Gona and Kundei area of Raighar on March 5, and in the posters, the Maoists claimed that the Indian government had rehabilitated several Bengali people in Raighar area by providing them land deeds. However, the government is yet to provide land deeds to the tribal people, alleged the Maoists. “The tribals should not hand over their landed properties to Bengali people for agriculture and other purposes,” said the posters. Certain legislations have been passed in 2006 to provide land deeds to tribal people residing near the forests. However, many tribal people have not been provided the land deeds yet, alleged the Maoist posters. The Maoists have also asked the Bengali people to return landed properties of the tribals at the earliest.

A special court refused to drop charges under Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) against three accused in a case where 15 security personnel and a civilian were killed in 2019 at Gadchiroli in an attack by the cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), reports The Free Press Journal on March 9. The court observed that prima facie there is ample material to show that the applicants – Parasram Tulavi, Somsay Madavi and Kisan Hidami – are members of the CPI-Maoist and have participated in the conspiracy and terrorist act. The court stated that it is not the requirement of law that previous chargesheets be filed against them and that the prosecution has shown their nexus with the organisation. The court also noted that the National Investigation Agency's (NIA) prosecutor has produced a list of 65 cases registered against members of the organisation. It said there is ample material that the applicants are its members and that the allegations against them are specific.
