In Sukma district of Chhattisgarh, Naxalites have once again created an atmosphere of fear. Late on Monday night, Naxalites killed two villagers in Sirsti village. Panic has spread in the area due to this incident. Police officials confirmed this on Tuesday.
Police is investigating the incident
According to the police, two villagers have been reported to have been killed from Sirsti village under Keralapal police station area of Sukma district. According to preliminary information, the Naxalites entered the village and killed both the villagers. However, due to what this murder was done, it has not been confirmed yet. Police say that they are investigating the incident and further information will be shared soon.
Naxalite violence in Bastar continuously increasing
Naxalite incidents have not stopped in 7 districts of Bastar division including Sukma. So far this year, around 35 people have lost their lives in Naxalite violence. These include rural, security forces and government employees. Constant incidents have created an atmosphere of fear and insecurity among the common people.
Shikshadoot also became aim
Recently, Naxalites also targeted Shikshadoots (temporary guest teachers in government schools). On August 29, a Shikshadut was kidnapped and killed by Naxalites in Bijapur.
Earlier on 27 August, a Shikshadut was also killed in Sukma district. It is clear from these incidents that Naxalites want to maintain their grip not only by intimidating the security forces but also the weaker sections and villagers of the society.
Panic among villagers, challenge before the government
The people of the village have been scared due to the continuous killings. People of the area around Sirceti village are also living in the shadow of fear. It is a big challenge for the government and police administration how to make the trust of the villagers and make them feel security.
Due to the increase in the number of Naxalite incidents in recent months, questions are also being raised on the government’s anti -Naxal strategy. Despite the frequent campaign of security forces, Naxalites are active in many areas and are killing innocent people.
At present, the police is investigating the matter. But the continuous incidents are telling that the threat of Naxalites in Bastar is still not completely over. In the coming days, there will be a big challenge in front of the government and security forces, how they should tighten the Naxalites and ensure the safety of the common people.
