In a significant breakthrough, senior Maoist leader Narasimha Chalam, also known as Sudhakar, met his end in an encounter with security forces in Bijapur, Chhattisgarh. Carrying a bounty of Rs 40 lakh, Sudhakar's demise is seen as a major achievement for the security personnel combating Naxalism in the region.
Sudhakar was a key member of the Maoists' Central Committee and played a vital role in radicalizing youth and orchestrating deadly attacks. His death follows the neutralization of CPI (Maoist) chief Basavaraju, signifying a series of setbacks for the outlawed group in recent weeks.
The operation involved the Special Task Force, District Reserve Guard, and CoBRA unit. Police assert that Sudhakar's neutralization is a crucial step towards ending left-wing extremism, aiming for peace and development in the region, with further operations underway to dismantle remaining Maoist structures.
