In view of the bandh we have issued orders to them to be extra alert. Movements of Maoist are being watched. I have gone round the various police stations in the border areas and gave suitable suggestion to the department personnel’.
Replying to a question on the situation in Chattisagarh, the SP stated that during the last four years it remained peaceful . There were no significant incidents in the recent past.

However, we are securing latest information on their movements from the intelligence sources’. Jha said in the context of threat to the people's representatives their security has been reviewed and they have been advised not to tour the Agency areas.
