Pioneer News Service | Bhubaneswar

The Maoist cadre in Kandhamal district are reported to be under the scanner of the security forces, following reports of their backing the Christian community in the ongoing clash in the tribal dominated district.

Kandhamal is surrounded by dense jungle from all sides including Deogarh, Gajapati, Rayagada, Nayagarh and Ganjam. The inhospitable terrain of Kandhamal bordering four Maoist-infested districts have come in handy for the militants.

A large number of Maoist cadre have reportedly entered into Kandhamal border through Gajapati since the violence broke out following the attack on Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati, sources maintained.

Kandhamal has porous borders at Adaba in Gajapati, Gunupur in Rayagada, Soroda in Ganjam and from all corners of Deogarh district, which has further widened the possibilities.

Sources said that there are already more than 100 Maoist training camps functioning in Kandhamal Besides, Maoists have their central armoury here due to safety reasons.

While talking to The Pioneer, Director General of Police Gopal Nanda said, " We have no specific information but we can't outright rejected such possibilities. We need to look into the issues seriously and the situation gradually changing in Kandhamal."

However, IGP (Special Armed Forces) Pradeep Kapoor, who is camping at the district headquarters town of Phulbani, denied such speculation. "The matter must be carefully taken up," he said.
