Maoists blow up government buildings in Dantewada district | Maoists blew up several government buildings, including an Aanganwadi centre, a primary school, a society for dispensing rations, and a village council hall on Thursday in Kirandul city in Chhattisgarh's Dantewada District. "There were
buildings of a society, one primary school, a village council hall and an Aanganwadi
centre, and they were blown up last night," said Rajneet Kaur, an observer with
the Women And Child Development Department of Kirandul. The Maoist network in
the state's Drabha division has accepted responsibility for the attack. They have
issued a warning letter as well. "We do not know the reason behind this, but whatever
has happened is not right because whatever the issues are, they can be talked
about. Now, this vandalism or the blast that they carried out, all the buildings
were associated with children. The school, the Aanganwadi centre and the society
was for the village people who come here to buy their rations. So, blowing up
all these buildings was not right, according to me," Kaur added. Maoists reportedly
feared that the buildings could be used by security personnel, and therefore,
destroyed them. |
