In a recent development, the police in Narayanpur district of Chhattisgarh have successfully discovered and defused three improvised explosive devices (IEDs) that were planted by Naxalites. This was confirmed by an official on Tuesday.
The IEDs, each weighing 5 kg, were found hidden beneath a dirt track near Hokpad village on the Kasturmeta-Mohndi villages road. This discovery was made on Monday when a joint team of the district force and 53rd battalion of the Indo Tibetan Border Police was on their regular patrolling duty. It is believed that the Naxalites had placed these explosives with the intention of using them against the security personnel.
Fortunately, the police were able to detect these devices and take necessary action to neutralize them. The explosives were cleverly packed in pressure cookers and strategically hidden under the earth. This could have resulted in a major tragedy had the police not acted promptly.
The Bomb Disposal Squad of the police was responsible for safely defusing the IEDs, ensuring the safety of everyone in the area. It is common for Naxalites to place explosives in order to target security forces during anti-Naxal operations in the Bastar division, which comprises of seven districts including Narayanpur.
This timely and efficient action by the police has prevented a potentially dangerous situation and highlights their dedication and commitment towards maintaining peace and security in the region. The authorities are constantly on high alert to combat any such threats and ensure the safety of the people.
