CRPF Cobra Unit Uncovers Explosives, Averts Maoist Attack in Chhattisgarh

In a significant operation, the Cobra 208 Battalion of the CRPF successfully uncovered a substantial cache of explosives and materials linked to Maoist insurgents in Bijapur, Chhattisgarh. This discovery, made during a routine patrol, included high-grade explosives like RDX, along with logistical supplies indicative of plans for large-scale violence against security forces and infrastructure. The operation is part of the ongoing Operation Sankalp, aimed at dismantling Maoist strongholds by March 2026, highlighting the persistent threat of Left-Wing Extremism in the region. The timely action of the Cobra unit has not only thwarted a potential attack but also demonstrated the effectiveness of their intelligence and jungle warfare tactics in combating insurgency. This operation reinforces the government’s commitment to securing peace in affected areas, critical for regional stability and development.
