| At least 22 Maoists have been killed in two separate encounters with central security forces in in Chhattisgarh. The bodies of 16 Maoists have been found; two of them, who sustained injuries, have also been captured.
The first encounter, which took place at Basaguda, began at around 12:30 am and ended early this morning. Two teams of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) launched the operation against the Naxals from two different directions - a 200-strong force moved from Jasaguda and another moved from Chintalnar in the north-west side.
Six CRPF jawans, including two CoBRA commandos, have sustained bullet injuries; two of them are critical. They have been air-lifted to state capital Raipur for medical aid. The arrested Maoists too have been taken Raipur.
The operation is being considered a huge success for security forces, given the high casualty figure of the Maoists. Significantly, most bodies of the killed Naxals have also been found, which otherwise are taken away by the Left ultras
