Seven Naxalites were arrested in Bijapur district, Chhattisgarh, by joint operations by the District Reserve Guard, Chhattisgarh Armed Force, and local police. Six were caught near Daler village and one near Bechapal. Authorities seized explosives and other items linked to Naxalite activities.

In a significant crackdown, law enforcement agencies arrested seven Naxalites in Chhattisgarh's Bijapur district. Police confirmed the arrests took place on Monday, involving strategic operations in two different locations.

The first operation led to the capture of six lower-level Naxal cadres from the forests adjacent to Daler village, under the jurisdiction of Bhairamgarh police. A separate raid near Bechapal village in the Mirtur police station area netted another member of the group.

Joint teams, comprising the District Reserve Guard, Chhattisgarh Armed Force, and local police forces, were instrumental in these operations. Authorities seized a tiffin bomb, gelatin sticks, cordex wire, detonators, electric wire, and digging tools, believed to be intended for subversive activities.
