Major Breakthrough in Anti-Naxal Campaign: Two Top Commanders Eliminated in Abujhmarh

Security forces in Chhattisgarh achieved a major breakthrough on October 3, 2025, by neutralizing two senior Maoist commanders, Basav Raju and Lalita, in Abujhmarh. The joint operation by CRPF, state police, and DRG recovered arms and explosives, significantly weakening CPI (Maoist)'s Western Regional Bureau. This follows the historic surrender of 103 Naxals in Bijapur, reinforcing the state’s push toward a Naxal-free Chhattisgarh by 2026.

Maoist Casualties Hit 250 in Chhattisgarh After Bijapur Encounter Eliminates Three Insurgents

While CM Vishnu Deo Sai and Union Home Minister Amit Shah hailed progress toward a Naxal-free India by 2026, rights groups flagged 28 civilian deaths, prompting a ₹300 crore rehabilitation package for affected families.
