People, please don't pass judgement about the dead person without any proof. Journalists often meet top maoist leaders (Azad was into public relations) and maoists arrange it. In such meetings the journalist has no clue about the whereabouts of the leadership and still they risk their lives to do their job.

Whether media should or should not give publicity to maoists and their PR is a different question, a policy matter for newspaper management and not the field journalist. So its possible that he was innocent - we don't know. since we don't know, lets just show respect to the dead. A request.
I respect the words you spoke, so no comments on the person who died here.
Now what do you think of those who go interview the outlaws and refuse to share the information of where about?

Journalist Hem Pandey one of us: Maoists


NEW DELHI: CPI (Maoist), in its official statement issued on July 3, not only acknowledged Hem Pandey as one of the party’s zonal committee members but also gave details about the 30-year-old from Pithoragarh in Uttarakhand and his work.

The statement has done away with doubts about his identity that arose following claims on Saturday by one Babita, who claimed to be his wife, that he was a freelance journalist who got killed while trying to interview Azad.

The party statement said, "On June 1, the Andhra Pradesh Special Branch Police arrested Azad, politburo member and spokesperson of CPI (Maoist), and Hem Pandey, a zonal committee level comrade, in Nagpur city around 11am when they went to meet a comrade who was supposed to receive them from the Dandakarnaya zone."

Giving details about Pandey, the statement said, "Hem Pandey, 30, hailed from a village near Pithoragarh town of Uttarakhand. He did MA in history from Nainital University and got himself registered for PhD. While he was in college, he was an active member of AISA... he moved to the radical groups. In 2001, he joined the then CPI (ML)(PW). He organized the peasantry in the mountainous villages in Almora district, taking up an umpteen number of their issues, including the problems arising out of Binsar sanctuary."

The statement described Pandey as a "soft-spoken, bespectacled, lean and energetic comrade, who won the love of people of that region". He was moved into more important work in 2005. "His appetite for learning new things, reading more and more and zeal for penning his ideas are things of emulation for all revolutionaries. He has written various articles for news magazines under various pen names. We request civil rights organizations to demand that the AP police send the body of Com Pandey to his bereaved mother who is in Haldwani. She is his sole surviving parent," the statement said.

Special wing has put Maoists on the mat: India Today: India News, Latest India News, Breaking News India, News in India, World, Business, Cricket, Sports, Bollywood News India


The special Intelligence Branch (SIB) of the Andhra Pradesh Police has come into focus again with the killing of Communist Party of India (Maoist) spokesperson and politburo member Cherukuri Rajkumar alias Azad.

A specialised wing set up by the state police to deal exclusively with Maoist activities across the state, the SIB has achieved major breakthroughs in the last five years. This has resulted in a decimation of the Maoist movement in the state and the arrest of several Maoist leaders in the country.

The last one- and- a- half decade saw several Maoist leaders, including the party's central committee ( CC) members, getting killed in encounters or arrested by the Andhra Pradesh Police, thanks to the pro- active SIB. The CC members who were killed in encounters include Shyam, Mahesh, Murali, Chandramouli, Sande Rajamouli, Prasad, Patel Sudhakar Reddy and Sakhamuri Appa Rao. Several other top leaders, including Kobad Ghandy, Malla Raji Reddy, B. Prasad Singh alias Balraj, Amit Bagchi, Pankaj, Bansidhar Singh alias Chintanda and Tushar Kanth Bhattacharya, were arrested either directly by the sleuths of the Andhra SIB or with the help of their inputs.

" That is the strength of our SIB. We have specialised intelligence wings not at a state- level, but in every district.

This works in tandem with the district police. The SIB's only function is to track the movements of the Maoists," an intelligence officer said.

Backed by unlimited funds, the SIB has spread its network across Maoist strongholds. " Normally, we share inputs with the central intelligence wing, but most of the times, we conduct operations on our own," the official said.

The SIB has a network of undercover operators who report directly to the headquarters and pass on information to the local superintendents of police before attacking the targets. " The fact that the Adilabad SP came to know about Azad's killing only in the last minute itself shows how secretly the SIB operates," the official said.

Maoist leaders also acknowledge the efficacy of the SIB. " On March 11, the Andhra SIB almost caught Azad. Since then, the sleuths have kept an eye on Maoist movements in Maharashtra. On Friday, they picked him up along with another guerrilla, took them to Adilabad and killed them in a fake encounter," CPI ( Maoist) Dandakarayna special zone spokesman Gudsa Usendi said.

The CPI ( Maoist) accused the SIB of encouraging covert activities to destroy them. " It pushes moles into the party. A majority of the encounter killings is only because of infiltration of moles into the movement," a Maoist sympathiser said.

Indian media ( specially leftist) should not give media attention to the Maoists. Publicity is also a tool for the terrorists. On the other hand, GoI needs to cut off the logistic chain of the Maoists terrorists. These Maoists are not poor at all with their multi billion rupees illegal practices.

16 Maoists surrender in Orissa

In a boost to the anti-Naxal campaign in Orissa, 16 Maoists involved in several attacks on forest offices surrendered before the police in Gajapati district on Saturday.

The ultras from seven villages of Adaba area of the naxal-hit district decided to lay down arms as they felt misled, betrayed and exploited by their seniors, district Superintendent of Police Sanjeev Arora said here.

Aged between 18 and 35 years, the rebels had joined Maoist activities in 2008 and undergone training in various fields including handling of different weapons.

The ultras were active in southern Orissa, mainly Gajapati district, and involved in several operations including attacks on forest offices, the SP said, adding most of them were providing logistic support.

They had joined the rebels after being promised that welfare of tribals and development of backward areas would be ensured by the Maoists, he said.

The ultras have also told police that they were being exploited by their seniors.

'As a democratic country we cannot fire on our own people'


In an integrated plan across states affected by Naxalism, the Union government has initiated firm action against the left-wing insurgents also known as the Maoists who claim they will overthrow the Indian government by 2050.

Naxalism has spread to 20 of the 28 states of the Indian Union. Last year, Naxal violence claimed 455 lives -- 255 civilians and 200 security personnel. According to the Union home ministry, 3,300 lives have been lost in the violence in the last five years. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh calls it the greatest threat to India's internal security.

The major Naxal-affected states in the country are Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Bihar, Orissa, West Bengal, Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh, with Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand witnessing the most Naxal-related killings last year.

40,000 sq kms of Bastar in Chhattisgarh -- Manipur and Nagaland are smaller than the erstwhile Bastar district -- is badly affected, while Naxalism is spread over 21 of Jharkhand's 22 districts.

The man appointed by the Government of India to lead the Centre's response to curb the Maoist menace in the country is a 1975 batch Indian Police Service officer, who was Inspector General, Border Security Force, in Srinagar when the BSF gunned down Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorist commander and mastermind of the 2001 Parliament attack, Ghazi Baba, in 2003.

Vijay Raman, the Kerala-born officer who has earlier served in Madhya Pradesh, is Special Director General of the Central Reserve Police Force and Commander of the Anti-Naxal Task Force, the operation dubbed Operation Green Hunt by the media.

The 58-year-old officer coordinates with the director generals of police of the seven Naxal-affected states and the Indian Air Force having powers to enlist its assistance, which he clarifies is only for casualty evacuation at the moment.

In his newly set-up office in a colonial building with a high ceiling and thick walls in Raipur, the genial officer with a somber voice, sat across his large table and spoke to rediff.com's Archana Masih about the challenges of the mammoth responsibility wrested in him, his added role of being a diplomat and how the operation that he stewards is also about wining back a lost people.

What is the role of the central forces in Chhattisgarh? What is your assessment so far?

This is an issue that the state governments should have handled. It is only because the issue has become complicated and acquired certain proportions beyond the control of the state governments that the central government has stepped in.

We have come here to assist the state police. If you go back into history, the problem in Chhattisgarh started in the mid 1980s but the real seriousness was realised in 1999-2000. That is when we stepped in. It is not only a local problem but is spreading into various states and is perhaps more area specific. They (the Naxalites) have chosen certain areas which are inaccessible and where tribals live, to make inroads and entrench themselves.

If you go into the basics about why this problem has arisen, perhaps fundamentally what will stand out is the lack of the reach of the government to the interiors. It may be because of the terrain and forests but the fact of the matter is that perhaps the element of governance has not reached wherever this problem is.

Here is the latest developement on Maoists control activity.

Unified command, more choppers for Naxal-hit states

New Delhi: A unified command will be set up to tackle the Naxal menace. It will be headed by a retired Major-General rank officer.
The Centre will also provide more helicopters for logistic support to Naxal-infested states to help in troop movement, reaching supplies and evacuation.

Home Minister P Chidambaram set the ball rolling today at the crucial Centre-State meeting on tackling the Naxal menace by listing decisions on Central support to states and asking the Chief Ministers to use the forum for a frank discussion.

The Prime Minister is chairing the day-long meeting.

Chidambaram admitted that "the efforts of the state governments, assisted by Central paramilitary forces, have met with mixed results," and said in view of the experience of the last six months, the Centre would,

Provide more helicopters for logistic support, troop movement, supplies and evacuation;

* Fund the establishment and strengthening of 400 police stations in the affected districts at the rate of Rs 2 crore per police station on an 80:20 basis over a period of two years;

* Sanction additional SPOs to the States;

* Request the governments of Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Orissa and West Bengal to create a Unified Command for anti-Naxal operations; request them to appoint a retired Major General of the Army as a member of the Unified Command; request the four State Governments to appoint an IG as IG (anti-Naxal operations) for that state; and to appoint an IG, CRPF as IG (Operations) for that State to work in close coordination with the IG (anti-Naxal operations) of that State;

* Set up an empowered group chaired by Member-Secretary, Planning Commission to modify existing norms/guidelines in the implementation of various development schemes having regard to the local needs and conditions in the affected districts;

* Advise the state governments to implement PESA strictly and vigorously; in particular, to ensure that rights over minor forest produce was assigned to the Gram Sabhas and the inter-position of Government controlled departments/ corporations/cooperatives are removed;

* Improve road connectivity in 34 districts most affected by Left Wing Extremism. A number of roads and bridges are proposed to be included, at a cost of Rs.950 crore, by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways under RRP-I.

* Consider, along with the Planning Commission, a Special Development Plan for the affected districts/States with emphasis on road connectivity, primary education, primary health care and drinking water.

The Home Minister requested the Governors and CMs of the states to bring to the table "the things that we are doing right and the things that we are doing wrong and that we can have a free and frank discussion on this very serious subject."

State governments are trying to tackle the Maoist problem in their own way, but the issue remains that the state has almost become the epicenter of Naxal violence is Chhattisgarh. After the deadliest Naxal attack on Indian soil in April, which killed 75 CRPF jawans, the Chief Minister underlined the need to take on the Red terror.

"Influential people due to immaturity become Naxal sympathizers. Propaganda relating to giving away mineral rich lands in Bastar to private companies is not correct. Not even a kg of iron ore has been taken away by MNCs. Only one per cent of area has been given for mining to the public sector companies like NMDC, SAIL and Chhattisgarh Mineral Development Corporation," Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh said.

"Intellectuals and society should rise above this misleading propaganda," he added.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, pointing out that his views might be at variance with those of some others, called for an integrated approach to tackle Naxalism. He said, "enforcement action alone leads to wider alienation, making heroes out of leaders.

Naxal elements, Nitish said, were "part of our society. Even though they were misled into following the path."

The Bihar CM, who has been at odds with the Centre on the Naxal issue, said his state had not received enough support from the Centre. He said Bihar needed 12,000 more constables and was waiting for approval.

He pointed out that his state shared an open border with Nepal and needed extra support.


****I hope this unified command brings more effectiveness in operations***

India sets up unified command to tackle Maoists

14 Jul 2010 11:04:23 GMT

By Bappa Majumdar

NEW DELHI, July 14 (Reuters) - India announced a unified command structure on Wednesday to help coordinate a security offensive against Maoist rebels, but analysts said the move may not be enough to turn around the battle against the insurgency.

The unified command, which will include a former army general, underlines government urgency to tackle a rebellion that has roiled poor rural regions where a sense of official neglect runs deep.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh wants decisive actions against the rebels, not only to show the government is in charge but also to free up vast tracts of mineral-rich forests with billions of dollars in business potential.

The rebels, inspired by China's Mao Zedong, say they are fighting for the poor and landless and have backed farmers in land disputes with industry, one of the main obstacles in Asia's third largest economy to higher growth and more rural jobs.

While the economic impact may be small compared with India's trillion dollar economy, the insurgency has taken some toll on business.

Work on a $7-billion steel plant by India's third largest steel producer, JSW Steel Ltd <JSTL.BO>, has been delayed. Frequent rebel attacks have hit production and shipment at firms such as India's largest miner of iron ore, NMDC Ltd's <NMDC.BO>.

Violent land protests backed by Maoists forced the scrapping of a Tata Motors' <TAMO.BO> Nano car plant and delayed work on two separate plants by the world's leading steelmakers Arcelor Mittal <ISPA.AS> and POSCO <005490.KS> in eastern India.

The campaign against the rebels has suffered because of the decision to avoid using the army for fear of alienating locals, leaving ill-trained police to fight a guerrilla war in the jungles of central and east India.

Poor coordination between state security forces has also hampered the fight, and the central government in New Delhi now hopes that a unified command would be able to fine tune the security offensive.

"The efforts of the state governments ... have met with mixed results," Home Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram told a meeting of chief ministers of the affected states in New Delhi.

The chief ministers also discussed the insurgency with Singh.

Views diverge on the right response to the rebellion. Many, including a section within the ruling Congress party, see the insurgency more as a problem of poverty and underdevelopment that could not be solved by force alone.

The new plan also involves the use of more helicopters and logistical support from the army. And as a measure of balance in the government response, Chidambaram announced more money for development projects in the Maoist-dominated areas.

But many security experts were unimpressed with the latest plans, including the unified security command structure, saying the strategy lacked detail.

"The cosmetic measures they are talking about do not in any sense increase the capability of the forces and there is no talk about how they will counter the Maoists in their heartland," said Ajai Sahni of New Delhi-based Institute for Conflict Management.

The insurgency, which Singh has described as India's biggest security challenge, is now present in a third of the country.

A string of deadly attacks this year has undermined the government's claim to be winning the war on the Maoists after it launched a security offensive with thousands of police last year.

The rebels are blamed for derailing a passenger train last month, killing at least 145 people. There were two other incidents since May that testified to their strength -- the killing of 76 police in an ambush and an attack on a bus that killed 35 people.
