Major Operation Against Maoists in Chhattisgarh

In a significant security operation in Chhattisgarh, security forces killed at least 31 Maoists, marking the highest death toll for the rebels in a single encounter since the onset of operations in the region. Acting on specific intelligence, over 1,000 personnel executed a strategic attack in the Ambujmar jungle, considered a stronghold for Maoist leaders. The success of the operation was enhanced by the forces returning unscathed, despite facing heavily armed units of the Maoists. The operation also yielded a substantial cache of weapons, including assault rifles and grenade launchers, indicating the armed capability of the opposition.
