<b>Hyderabad</b>, Feb. 15: The Maoists are planning to infiltrate the Central paramilitary and police forces to get advance information on operations against them. Documents seized by police from Maoist hideouts in different parts of the State reveal that the Left wing extremists were particularly keen on infiltrating their men in paramilitary forces active in anti-Naxal operations in the jungles. Director general of police M.A. Basith confirmed that the police had seized some valuable documents from the Naxals recently.
âWe are studying the documents. We will also come out with our own strategies to counter the Maoists,â he said. The DGP added that the department has been keeping a tab on the Maoistsâ movements. âVigilance has been increased. There will be no infiltration in the police force as we have a foolproof system,â he assured. However, the documents, copies of which are available with this newspaper, disclose that the Maoists are not only planning to plant moles in the security agencies but will also try to âconvertâ at least some paramilitary personnel to their ideology.
This would be done by enlightening them about the four decade-old protracted armed struggle taken out by the Maoists for the uplift of downtrodden communities. Such âcovertâ operations would demoralise paramilitary and police forces, which are on a high note after successful combing operations, hope the Maoists. The documents reveal that the Maoists are concentrating on urban areas as jungles were no longer safe.
Admitting recent setbacks, the documents say that the âstrong enemy (the State) was taking advantage of the situation and is trying to crush the movement in all possible waysâ. This was the time to move strategically to protect the leadership and party forces (armed guerrillas) besides keeping public support intact. The Maoists have noted that the rapid migration of rural poor to the urban areas is helping them strengthen their base in cities and towns. They will be focusing on industrial belts where migrant labourers are working and will infiltrate trade unions and other mass organisations.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
