To a question the two officers said that the number of naxalites is now drastically reduced. But it was not an easy task for CRPF, given the difficult terrain and dense jungles which makes the task of guerrilla warfare a major challenge.
CRPF is strictly following Standard Operating Procedure (SoP) in the Naxal hit areas. “Our jawans are staying in jungle for four to five days during the patrolling.” “Government have provided modern equipment’ to the force to control Naxal activities in the area and we have succeeded in the operation,” said DIG Singh.
When asked about rise in suicides by CRPF jawans, the DIG Singh replied at Nagpur centre the cases are quite rare.

So we have focused on resolve the problems at home front of the jawans, he claimed.
It can be mentioned that CRPF battalions were first moved in the Gadchiroli district for peaceful conduct of general elections of 2009. Nagpur Group Centre have five battalions out of which two are deployed in Gadchiroli, one in Chattisgarh, one at Orrissa and one in Jammu & Kashmir. With this, the Centre is also taking care of maintenance of three CRPF battalions of difference groups, which are deployed at Gadchiroli.
