Dantewada Attack: Manhunt Begins

The AP police are worried that Naxalism the North Telangana Zone might be revived again following the success of the Dantewada massacre.
Hyderabad | 12th April 2010
The nation's biggest manhunt has begun - for the purpose of capturing the masterminds behind the Maoist massacre that killed 81 of the 82 unit CRPF personnel in Dantewada.

The Andhra Pradesh police, who accomplished the curbing of Naxalism that flourished in the state since 2004, and since then is being cited as an example throughout the nation, is apprehensive that the movement in the North Telangana Zone might be revived again following the success of the Dantewada massacre. Most top Maoist leaders hail from AP, according to police officers.

Warangal-born Ramana, the Special General Secretary of Dandakaranya region, who is said to have been involved in many strikes earlier on the nation's security forces, is said to be the supremo of the attack. (Dandakaranya is the forest tract in the country's central-southern region covering parts of Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, the Bastar region of Chhattisgarh, and Maharashtra. It is considered a "liberated" zone, where the banned CPI (Maoist) forms its own government and rules.)

Then, there is 50-year-old Papa Rao, again of Warangal origin, who is a general seceretary of the Maoists' Jagarbandhu area committee. He is a close associate of Ramana. Rao, who is known to have a detailed knowledge about the area's topography, is now considered to have engineered the entire ambush that occured in Dantewada. He is said to be aided by Hidma, the military advisor to the Jagarbandhu area committee.
