Naxals launches anti-poll posters war, panic prevails

Though police from local police stations removed the posters early today, villagers said that they would not cast vote at the cost of life, sources said.

However, IG of police Bokaro range Lakshaman Prasad Singh said that Naxals have done this only to create panic as they have been completely wiped out from the region. 

Senior police officers from Jharkhand and West Bengal held joint meeting at Maithon to counter naxal activities and the IG had made massive patrolling in Naxal-influenced Tundi block to gain confidence of voters.
