What did he say about the operation in Karreguttalu?
On the investigation of the operation in Karreguttalu, he said, "Whatever the soldiers did was right. This operation was necessary. The Naxalites had stored more than 9 tonnes of grains on this mountain. Apart from this, they had hidden more than 2 tonnes of gunpowder. He raised the question that why did the Naxalites climb the mountain with such a large amount of ration? Why were so many centers built in the mountain to prepare explosives, obviously the Naxalites would have carried out some big incident again, so conducting the operation in Karreguttalu was a right decision.
31 Naxalites were killed
He further said, "DRG, Bastar Fighter, CRPF, Cobra and STF soldiers showed their courage and made this operation successful by killing 31 Maoists and recovering such a large amount of explosives and weapons from the Naxalites." At the same time, regarding the Bastar visit of former chhattisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel, he said, "If the former chief minister had visited Bastar earlier, he would probably not have been out of the government. deputy cm Vijay Sharma also said that the Constitution will be implemented on every inch of Bastar."
