Forty Naxals,
including nine women, surrendered before the police in the insurgency-hit
Bastar district of Chhattisgarh on Saturday.
On Monday, nine lower-rank Naxals
had reportedly surrendered in insurgency-hit Kondagaon district of the state,
citing their disappointment with the ideology of CPI (Maoist).
The surrendered naxals had also
reportedly informed that they were frustrated with increasing pressure of
anti-Naxalite operations in the region.
In March, as many as 56 Naxals,
including three women, surrendered in the Bastar.
Dreaded woman Maoist Mase alias
Shabnam Mandavi (23), an area committee member carrying a reward of Rs five lakh
on her head, was also among those who surrendered in March.
In one of the biggest surrender in
the history of Chhattisgarh, as many as 122 Maoists had surrendered before the
senior Police officials and district administration in Dornapal Police Station
of Sukma district in April.
