Gaya, May 11 (ANI): Troopers from the paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) set up camps along a crucial supply line of Maoists to combat their activities in the Gaya.
The CRPF troopers have set up camp in the Sevara locality which lies along the border of the provinces of eastern Bihar and Jharkhand and is a haven for Maoist activities in the region.
The troopers would use special equipments and weapons to counter the Maoists.
The locality is also strategic as it is directly connected to the Chakarbandha hilly region which is a major hideout for the Maoists and also paves way for them to travel neighbouring states like Jharkhand.
"There is a lot of Maoist movement on this side. The road which runs from Meghara is their supply line. Setting up a camp along this line will affect their supply to a large extent. We can also get help in going into the Maoist hideouts in the hilly areas of Chakarbandha," said P. K. Bharti, the CRPF deputy commandant and incharge of the camp.
Maoists have significantly increased their presence in tribal and rural regions in the eastern and central India.
The Maoists say they are fighting for the rights of millions of landless labourers and marginal farmers. (ANI)
