Chhattisgarh Naxal IED Attack: On Wednesday (April 26) near Aranpur in the Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh, a vehicle carrying DRG (District Reserve Guard) personnel was attacked by an IED. The Naxalites had planted the IED. 11 soldiers were martyred in this attack. Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel said that this is very sad. My condolences to the bereaved families. This fight is ongoing in the last phase, and Naxalites will not be spared at any cost. We will end Naxalism in a planned manner.

During the return, the Maoists carried an IED blast on the Aranpur road, so 10 DRG jawans and a driver involved in the operation were martyred.

Know About DRG
DRG means District Reserve Guard, who are special personnel of Chhattisgarh Police. They have been recruited only to fight the Naxalites.
