Despite the incentive plan the Maoists are still fighting. Police had to send reinforcements which meant a large outnumbered encounter, as usual for much of the overburdened paramilitary/under-equipped police.

Raipur: In yet another daring attack, the Naxals on Wednesday tried to ambush paramilitary forces in the dense jungles of Dantewada.

As per initial reports, 50-60 Naxals launched a surprise attack on a contingent of around 100 jawans who were out in Kirandul jungle on a combing operation.

The jawans fought back and there was an exchange of fire between the Maoists and the forces. Reinforcements are being rushed to the location, said to be around 13 kilometres from Kirandul town in the jungles between Gumiyapal and Kukram.

"The encounter between the security forces and the Maoists are still continuing. We have rushed additional reinforcements to the area and helicopters has been pressed into service. We are yet to get any details as it is raining heavily in the area", sources at the state police headquarters said.

"As of now, we don't have any details regarding injuries or causalities on both the sides", police sources said and quoted preliminary reports that about 50 to 60 Naxalites were apparently engaged in the encounter.

The incident took place in the dense forests near Kirandul, about 450 Kms away from the state capital, in Dantewada district where there has been a spurt of Maoist violence since April this year.

These maoists are motivated. Their weapons are nothing special, but they are more disciplined and their tactics are classic guerrilla war and police was not made for such encounters.
