The Hindu  

The security forces in Chhattisgarh, despite “operational losses,” are jubilant at what they say is a strategic gain made in ‘Operation Greenhunt.’ The CoBRA unit has successfully taken control of pockets which had been the site of Maoist camps and congregations for many years. “Our forces could go to Singanmadugu, where some 24 naxalites were killed, for the first time after the Maoists gained ground in South Bastar. The CoBRA unit forces, the Koya commandos as well as the district armed force personnel were all back at their bases. There was no habitation for many kilometres in the vicinity of Palachelma, where the Koya commandos and the district forces launched an offensive on the Maoist camp.
