A very sad incident, I doubt they choose this particular day, if they wanted to do something relating to this day then they would have attacked a government office.
There is a more recent incident, the incident involving the kidnap of Chhatisgarh collector of Sukma district
the terrain is bad. the equipments are substandard, MPVs are the one who get blown up and kill the occupants, UAVs cant detect maoist movement (now what even the harop and herons are useless- stop blaming the manufacturers) reinforcements doesnt come up and yes the moral is not high either. problem is not jsut with training, its complete failure
willpower to eliminate them is lacking...otherwise it would take couple of months to entirely dismantle naxals.
And how did naxal get IED ? Once again a complete intelligence failure . Seriously do these naxal produce weapon on their own ?
ask me i'll tell. this IED are not what you see with military, but just made by stone powder and gelitine sticks used in mines... they very easy to get in here.. i personally seen them and even 100kg landmines made by these naxals.. my personal advise to CISF and CRPF to completely abandon there Ops here, as you cant win... here... Just tell the Govt until the proper Infrastructure and weapons are given we cant go in this forests...
they produce machine guns and rocket launchers on their own. many factories of maoists were raided in the past
what ever they produce, they dont give them to their cadre before... because they are afraid of episionage.. generally a group controlling area are called Dalam, ....... their is structure.... u dont understand and never seen them,.. coming to your point, the all weapons produced are kept in a dump near by the target.... so they dont always have AK's or Rockets with them..
Army should be given operational command of the area. Move a few RR or Assam Rifles Unit or Raise new ones. Joint training and declare Naxal Hit Areas as CI Ops. CRPF is a sitting duck. And even we are failing to understand the magnitude of the spread of Naxalism. I believe there are more causalities in the Red Corridor than NE or J&K as it seems. Atleast 25-30 RR or Assam Rifles type Battalions. or converting the CRPF deployed there into something like that and gve the responsibility of training to them. Also the main problem remains in the ideology of maoists which a democracy can never fullfill so India has to look at other methods.
If only this country happen.... unless and until we all Indians realize that only politicians feed terrorists whether internal or external, we will continue losing sons of our land to this evil. There has to be a political revolution by the people of our country. If we are indeed a true democracy then we should show it. But sadly we are so dis-united that while the soldier in uniform dies so that we could live, we cannot even unite to save his life or even thank him in kind rather than the ceremonial candle-light mockery. Very sad.
who is naxal? naxal is the one who is poorest of the poor. he is the one who is cut off from the main stream lucrativeness. he got no ambition for future and only a troubled past in which every misery is linked to the corruption and bad intentions of the govt. who is responsible for his apathy? who exploited him? the elites- of his village or town or hamlet. since childhood he developed a hatred for elites, and those who get facilities from society. the sense of deprivation and pain and insult he gets everyday makes him prone to factions like PLA etc. then comes traumatic loss to his life or his friend or relative in form of mass insult, torture or death of his loved ones. the break even has been achieved and now he is no more bounded by worldly restrictions- he now owns a gun and desire to shoot. no plan, no road, no job, no silly govt ad can take away this in built desire to wipe out everything. its not the brainwashing but his in built desire to destroy the system responsible for all his messed up life. and he is determined to take it away and crush it. he is not doing it for jungles, society or masters, he is doing it for self and that too in revenge mood and as we know revenge is the purest of all emotion and so powerful that it may lead to death. a determined person v/s a low salary low moral ill-equipped soldier in a jungle which is home to the killer/beast/naxal and death trap for soldier of govt. we know then what will happen and how often it will happen
