Nine Chhattisgarh Maoists cross into Maharashtra, surrender in Gadchiroli Nagpur: Nine senior Maoist guerrillas from Chhattisgarh crossed the Indravati river into Maharashtra and surrendered to Gadchiroli police and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) on Tuesday, marking a significant blow to insurgent activity in the Dandakaranya region. The surrender occurred on the final day of the March 31 deadline set by Union home minister Amit Shah under the national policy. The cadres had moved through the forests of Indravati National Park, entering Maharashtra in a coordinated operation before laying down their arms. The police attributed the development to sustained anti-Maoist operations and rehabilitation packages offered by the central and Maharashtra governments. Among the surrendered were three area committee-level guerrillas and six hardcore cadres, collectively carrying a bounty of Rs30 lakh. Two women, Shanti Wadde and Sukki Kunjam, surrendered with an AK-47 rifle and 30 live cartridges. Wadde, who received a Rs6 lakh reward, served as an area committee member in the Indravati local organisational squad. Acting on information from the surrendered cadres, joint teams of Gadchiroli police and CRPF recovered an AK-47 rifle, three magazines, 57 live rounds, three walkie-talkies, four batteries, and 20 pen drives from Kummar forest near the Maharashtra-Chhattisgarh border. Subsequent operations in coordination with Chhattisgarh Police led to further recoveries in the Gundapur area of Indravati National Park, including two 7.62 SLR rifles, a single-shot weapon, and 50 detonators. This surrender follows a similar move by seven Maoist cadres over the previous five days, bringing the recent total to 16 linked to this intelligence input.#maharashtra #chhattisgarh #amit_shah #gadchiroli #central_reserve_police_force
