Chhattisgarh: IED Blast in Bijapur Kills One Jawan, Two Injured in Anti-Maoist Operation

The IED blast by Naxalites killed one DRG jawan and injured three during an anti-Maoist operation amid efforts to end Maoism by March 2026, officials said.

  • Pressure-Activated IED planted by Naxalites detonated, killing DRG jawan Dinesh Nag and injuring three others in Bijapur district.
  • In Indravati National Park, the anti-Naxal operation began on Sunday to clear insurgent hideouts, following years of Maoist safe havens, officials said.
  • A joint District Reserve Guard and Special Task Force team carried out the operation, provided first aid to the wounded personnel, and evacuated them from the dense forest site.
  • The injured personnel are reported to be out of danger, as no casualties are confirmed this year by officials.
  • Next year, India aims to be free of Maoism by March 31, 2026, following the killing of at least 44 Maoists in Indravati National Park this year, as part of Union Home Minister Amit Shah's pledge.
