how to killed top naxle leader Baswa Raju by Chhattisgarh Police?
Nambala Keshava Rao, also known as Basavaraju, a top Maoist leader and general secretary of the banned Communist Party of India (Maoist), was killed in an encounter with security forces in Chhattisgarh's Narayanpur district.
Here's a breakdown of how the operation unfolded, based on recent reports:
Intelligence-led Operation: The operation was based on intelligence inputs indicating the presence of senior Maoist leaders, including Basavaraju, in the Abujhmad region of Narayanpur. This area is a dense, unsurveyed forest considered a Maoist stronghold.
Multi-district DRG Teams: Teams from the District Reserve Guard (DRG) of four districts—Narayanpur, Dantewada, Bijapur, and Kondagaon—were involved in the operation.
72-Hour Operation: The security operation, reportedly named "Operation Black Forest," lasted for approximately 72 hours. It was preceded by about 15 days of elaborate planning.
Encounter in Dense Jungle: Gunfights broke out in a patch of dense jungle, some 15-20 km from Orchha, when the DRG teams located the Maoist camp.
Heavy Casualties: Along with Basavaraju, 26 to 27 other Maoist cadres were also killed in the fierce gunfight. One DRG jawan was martyred.
Recovery of Arms and Explosives: A significant amount of modern weapons and explosives were recovered from the encounter site.
Significance: Basavaraju's death is considered a major blow to the Maoist movement, as he was a key strategist, an expert in IEDs, and the mastermind behind several deadly attacks. This is reportedly the first time in three decades that a general secretary-ranked Maoist leader has been neutralized by security forces.
