The front portion of the vehicle had been almost completely destroyed by the force of the blast.<br \/> \u201cThe killing and targeting of innocent civilians travelling on a bus is to be strongly condemned by all right-thinking people,\u201d Indian Home Secretary G.K. Pillai told reporters in New Delhi.<br \/>The security men among the dead and injured were special police officers, who are recruited from the civilian population to help security forces in anti-Maoist operations, said S.R. Kalluri, deputy inspector general of police.<br \/>The left-wing guerrillas have stepped up attacks in response to a government offensive against them that began late last year in the forests of the so-called \u201cRed Corridor\u201d that stretches across north and eastern India.<br \/>The insurgency began in the state of West Bengal in 1967 in the name of defending the rights of tribal groups, but attacks have since spread to 20 of India&#8217;s 28 states.<br \/>Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has labelled the insurgency the biggest internal security threat to India.<br \/>Tribal groups and many rural areas have been left behind by the country&#8217;s economic development, and the poverty and discontent with local government corruption is seen as a major source of Maoist support.<\/p>\n<p>Source: DAWN<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RAIPUR: At least 35 people were killed after Maoist rebels blew up a bus carrying police and civilians in the central Indian state of Chhattisgarh on Monday, an official said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-313","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
