Tribal leaders not given their due in the party, he says
This year, the banned CPI (Maoist) suffered three major setbacks in the Andhra- Odisha Border region. The first was the surrender of senior Maoist leader Jalandhar Reddy alias Krishna in April, the next was the major encounter in Teegalametta in Koyyuru mandal in which six top Maoists, including Ranadev and Ashok, were killed and the latest to add to their woes is the surrender of Chikkudu Chinna Rao alias Sudheer before DGP Goutam Sawang in Vijayawada on Thursday. Sudheer was a divisional committee member of Pedabayalu-Korukonda area committee and his surrender is a big blow to the Maoist movement in AOBSZC (Andhra Odisha Border Special Zonal Committee), as he was one among the few tribal leaders from this region, who held considerable sway among the locals.
