Chhattisgarh police announced cash rewards for people for giving information about naxals and their activities.
Speaking to ANI, Kabirdham Superintendent of Police Abhishek Pallav said, "Those who will share the information regarding naxals will be rewarded with Rs 5 lakhs. The reward will be given by the government." He further said, "If one naxal is arrested or killed, up to five people will be provided jobs on constable posts." The district police officials have also visited homes in the district and shared information about giving a reward of Rs. 5 lakhs to those helping to arrest the Naxalites. "This information has been circulated to 35,000 individuals in the last 3 days through pamphlets and WhatsApp. We are also forming civil defence groups in the villages to protect the villagers from the Naxalites," he added. He said more than six police camps were opened in the last three months in the naxal-affected areas. "Police camps have been opened at a range of 7-8 km in naxal-hit areas of the state. We are also running schools for small children in nine highly sensitive areas. We have arranged various sports activities for the youth. Naxalism will be eliminated from the Kawardha area in the next six months with the help of villagers," SP Abhishek Pallav said. (ANI)
