While the polling on November 11 went by and large smooth amid small incidents, Maoists have attacked in at least three places on Tuesday on the polling parties which were returning with Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) to the district headquarters.
Two BSF jawans were killed and one jawan severely injured when their vehicle was exploded in a landmine blast on a bridge located in Sukma's Manjhipara area. The driver in the vehicle also died in the incident while a doctor with BSF team was also injured. The injured jawans were airlifted to Raipur hospital.
According to police officials, this was the same spot from where former Sukma collector Alex Paul Menon was abducted by Maoists last year which makes the spot vulnerable to such incidents. Officials said that explosives in large number were seized from this spot but possibly the landmine was planted in the early hours before the part was supposed to pass from the place.
In another incident, a CRPF deputy commandant was injured in an encounter which went for an hour in Dornapal. The commandant sustained bullet injuries in legs and was brought to Raipur hospital where his condition is said to be out of danger. He was a part of the Road opening Party team at Chintagufa in Dornapal area and the incident took place when Maoists opened indiscriminate firing on the team and the commandant sustained injuries in the gun-battle between CRPF men and Maoists.
As per the reports, Maoists are continuously targeting the security forces who are accompanying the polling parties and based on the past instances there may be incidents of Maoists looting the EVMs after attacking the party.
One more landmine blast took place at Pankhajur's Gundahur area where Maoists tried to explode three buses of BSF jawans who were returning after the polls. One BSF jawan was injured in the incident and has been airlifted to Raipur hospital while others sustained minor injuries.
Ajay Yadav, Superintendent of Police Jagdalpaur, said that the security forces in large are on the way returning after the polls to the district headquarters and state capital for further deployment for the second phase of polling. "Encounters at many places on the way are taking place."
