In the following we want to give a short overview of the actions in People´s War in India in the first week of July.

 

On Monday, July 06, a unit of the District Reserve Guard were ambushed during an “anti-Maoist” operation in Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh. According to policereports, there had been "specific information" about the presence of Maoist forces in the village of Marjum, but villagers have warned the comrades of the approaching reactionary forces. After the unsuccessful operation, the security forces withdrew to the base, triggering an improvised explosive device - two District Reserve Guards were injured.

 

On July 02 a police informer were killed, also in the district of Dantewada of Chhattisgarh. A people's court had found the National Mineral Development Corporation employee guilty of intelligence in the service of the reaction - of course the reaction denies this.

 

The same day a police officer were killed in the Bijapur Region of Bastar in Chhattisgarh. About the details of the action, various bourgeois Indian media make contradictory statements. The reaction repeatedly tries to withdraw the support of the masses for People's War by allegations of "particularly brutal" actions - but without success.
