In a notable success for security forces, approximately 36 Maoists were allegedly killed during an operation in a forest near the Narayanpur-Dantewada border in Chhattisgarh on Friday (October 4).
The District Reserve Guard (DRG) and the Special Task Force (STF) began the anti-Maoist operation on Thursday, with contact established at 12.30 pm on Friday.
The security forces recovered several assault rifles, including those from the AK series, and weapons during the operation.
Acting on intelligence indicating a substantial Maoist presence, separate teams were dispatched to villages in Govel, Nendur, and Thulthuli under the Orcha and Barsur police jurisdictions on Thursday, where they launched combing operations.

The encounter began at Friday noon in the forests near Nendur-Thulthuli.
Security forces are reportedly pursuing a few remaining Maoists who have retreated further into the dense forest.
This operation marks one of the most significant successes for the security forces in the ongoing fight against the Maoist insurgency in Chhattisgarh.
Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo said it was a big operation and commended the security personnel involved.
“Naxalism is taking its last breath… Naxalism is certainly going to be eliminated from the state… Union Home Minister Amit Shah has visited the state twice in nine months regarding this and he has resolved to end Naxalism by March 2026,” Deo said.
