Hyderabad: Telangana State DGP Anurag Sharma on Thursday said that the three major state committees of Maoists, which used to function in Telangana earlier, have now retreated to jungles in Chhattisgarh. He claimed that the ultra-left groups are not able to recruit people from Telangana because of strict police vigil. He added that the police will not allow them to get back.
The Telangana State Committee of CPI (Maoist) is operating with three district committees- Adilabad District Committee, Khammam District Committee and KKW divisional committees. “Their presence in the state is very less now. Recruitment is also very low. We will not allow them to make a comeback into the state,” the DGP said adding that TS Committee is operating with around 92 cadres.
The police chief said that there were two cases of exchange of fire with the extremists during last year.
