The security forces have once again announced an all-out war against the Maoists who are carrying out anti-national and criminal activities in the forests of Jharkhand. After putting pressure on the state’s notorious Maoist commander Misir Besra, now the security agencies and police have started tightening their grip on another big rewarded Maoist Asim Mandal. Joint teams of Jharkhand Police, CRPF and Cobra Battalion have intensified the search operation in many areas of the state to trace and arrest Aseem Mandal. This aggressive attitude of the security forces has created panic among the Naxalites.
Who is Aseem Mandal and why is it a big headache for Jharkhand Police?
According to the intelligence inputs of security agencies, Asim Mandal is a very dangerous Naxalite commander active in the forest areas of Jharkhand and its surroundings for a long time. Many serious criminal cases are registered against him like attacking security forces, collecting levy, and tricking youth into joining the organization. The government has also announced a huge reward on this notorious Maoist. Police officials believe that Asim Mandal’s network is not limited to just one district, rather he has been carrying out his activities on the borders of many states, due to which his arrest has become the biggest priority for the security forces.
After Misir Besra, special operation is being conducted against top commanders
In recent months, security forces in Jharkhand have started working under a special strategy to break the back of Naxalism. Some time ago, security forces had put heavy pressure on the hideouts of notorious Maoist Misir Besra, after which the Naxalite organizations have come into complete defensive mode. Now, taking this strategy forward, the hideouts of Aseem Mandal and his close associates are being raided simultaneously. With the help of modern weapons, drone surveillance and intelligence system, every nook and corner of the forests is being searched so that the entire network of these Naxalites can be destroyed.
Enhanced security arrangements for general public and local areas
In view of this big campaign being conducted against Naxalites, a situation like police cantonment has been created in the remote and Naxal affected districts of Jharkhand. Police stations and security posts have been fully alerted. Intelligence agencies are continuously getting important clues about the possible hiding places of Asim Mandal. Experts believe that the way the security forces have cracked down on the top Naxalites one after the other, the hope of complete eradication of Naxalism from Jharkhand in the coming days has increased.
