New Delhi: Strongly condemning the Maoist attack on civilians in Chhattisgarh's Dantewada district, Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) leader Sitaram Yechury said it shows the "callous manner in which Maoists are taking innocent lives."
"We strongly condemn this attack. It shows the callous manner in which Maoists are taking innocent lives," said a member of the party's politburo Yechury.
He said the attack happened despite the Union Home Ministry giving assurances that the government is moving in the right direction on dealing with the Maoist insurgency.
"The government should take firm action against the Maoists," Yechury said.
At least 14 policemen and 13 civilians died when Maoists blew up a bus in a forested stretch in Chhattisgarh's Dantewada, the same region where they slaughtered 76 security personnel over a month ago.
