Maoists attack police lines in Jehanabad
Onkar Singh in Delhi | November 13, 2005 23:39 IST
Hundreds of activists of the banned Communist Party of India (Maoist) on Sunday attacked the police lines in South Bihar's Jehanabad district tonight, police said.
A senior Bihar government official claimed that the situation in Jehanabad town was under control and there was no reason to worry.
However, reports from Jehanabad say that over 1000 Maoists took control of the town around 9 to 10 PM on Sunday night and the city was under darkness.
Attempts to get in touch with Bihar Governor Buta Singh proved futile. State police chief Ashish Ranjan has called an emergency meeting of Bihar police's top officials soon after the incident.
Central Reserve Police Force battalions (numbers not known) have been rushed from nearest places to crush the Maoist attack. "The exchange of fire between security forces and Maoists has stopped now and things are under control," claimed an official posted at the Director General, Bihar's office.
The SSP could not be contacted as he is conducting operations against Maoists.
