Out bird hunting at night, Chhattisgarh man caught in ‘shootout between Maoists, security forces'
A 21-year-old tribal man, who had gone bird hunting on the night of August 14, suffered a bullet injury in his leg after purportedly getting caught in the crossfire during a shootout between security forces and Maoists in Chhattisgarh's Kondagaon district, officials said. The district had been declared Naxal-free by the Centre earlier this year. Abhay Netam and three of his friends had gone to hunt birds in the Nelajhar jungle, under the jurisdiction of Keshkal police station, on August 14 night. The group was carrying an airgun to shoot the birds. 'We left around 9-10 pm on a bike to hunt birds in a jungle area near our gram panchayat. We were going into the jungle, but it started raining and we decided to return. The (security) forces suddenly came and asked us to stop. But we got scared and began to hide. My group left. After one round was fired, I told the police not to fire, but they still fired at me. They then took me to hospital,' Netam told reporters. The Kondagaon police issued a press note regarding the incident, saying the security forces, comprising District Reserve Guard (DRG) and Bastar Fighters, had left on an anti-Naxal operation around 10.30 pm after getting information about the presence of Maoists in the Nelajhar jungle. The Maoists opened fire at the forces, after which the forces fired back at the Maoists, forcing them to retreat, the police said. During search operations, they found two Bharmar guns, Naxal uniforms and other items. At some distance from the encounter spot, they spotted an injured Netam and rushed him to the hospital, saving his life, the police claimed. Doctors treating Netam said he is now out of danger. 'He was brought to the district hospital at around 1 am after getting primary treatment at a Community Health Centre. When he was brought here, he was in shock and had lost a lot of blood. At around 2 am, a surgery was performed and he is now in a stable condition. The bullet pierced his pelvis and exited from the front. His pelvic bone is fractured and shattered,' Dr S Nagulan from the Kondagaon district hospital told the media.

Maoist camp in Gariaband busted by security forces, 16L cash seized
Raipur: A huge cache of arms and explosives was recovered from the forests of Gariaband district of Chhattisgarh when a joint team inter-district police, CRPF and CoBRA had launched an anti-Naxal operation on Sunday. Cash worth Rs 16.5 lakh was seized from the site of encounter. The forces were combing the forests of village Gobra in Manpur region when a group of armed Maoists opened firing upon the security personnel and faced retaliation, said Raipur range inspector general of police Amresh Mishra. After brief exchange of fire, Maoists retreated into forests. Security personnel launched a search in the area and recovered a dump of arms and ammunition, that indicated Maoists were hatching a plan for an attack. The joint team of Dhamtari and Gariaband district police along with paramilitary forces collected the cache and brought it back to base at district headquarters, the official said. The seizure included INSAS rifles, country made weapons, pistols, revolvers, magazines of AK-47, SLR, INSAS and .303, and live rounds along with explosives like detonators, pressure cooker IED, laptop, walkie talkie set and large quantity of medicines, literature of outlawed Maoist organization and daily use items. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The 5 Books Warren Buffett Recommends You To Read in 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Police said the recovery points to the presence of senior Maoist cadres in the area and that the camp was being used as a logistics hub. It's believed that Maoists sneak into dense forests of Gariaband which they use for rest, hiding weapons and a movement route from Chhattisgarh to bordering Odisha. IG Mishra said that the entire operation was carried out with strict coordination between state police and central forces. Officials said the seizure has dealt a serious blow to Maoist activities in Gariaband, and search operations are being further intensified in the region. A case has been registered at Manpur police station, and investigation is underway. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

Prayagraj: The atmosphere across Abunagar and its surrounding areas remained calm and incident-free during the celebration of Janmashtami on Saturday, according to police. Security was tightened across the Abunagar locality of Fatehpur, with the police maintaining strict surveillance and barricading all roads within a one-km radius of the disputed site. Amid concerns that some locals might attempt to enter the disputed site at Abunagar Eidgah to perform religious rituals on Janmashtami, Abunagar and nearby areas under Kotwali Nagar police station in Fatehpur district were transformed into a security fortress on Saturday. In response, senior police and administrative officials enforced prohibitory orders and ramped up surveillance across the sensitive zone. The heightened security followed clashes on Aug 11 (Monday), when members of Hindu organisations allegedly entered the Eidgah premises and hoisted saffron flags atop a 200-year-old mausoleum located within the compound. The group claimed the mausoleum had been built over a temple site. The police had already lodged an FIR against 10 named individuals and 150 unidentified people for disturbing peace.
