Defying Maoists threat youth turning up  to participate in ‘Bastar Fighters’ recruitment process

Raipur: Defying the Maoist threat, the youth hailing
from interiors of Bastar region, a Naxal hotbed, are turning out in large
numbers to participate in ‘Bastar Fighters’ recruitment which started from May
9.

The youth said that we have come to join the force. If
the Naxalites get to know about this, they will torture the family members too.
Many youth are also victims of Naxal violence. Few applicants even asked not to
take their photo as the Maoists will kill them if they see their photos. They
have reached secretly to participate in recruitment drive. Some even refused to
write their names due to Maoist threat.

Meanwhile, a few months ago, the local youth of
Dantewada were trained by the police to join Bastar Fighters. The police had
also made arrangements for their food and accommodation. The process of
recruitment was to start a few days after the training was over. However, due
to some reason the dates could not be announced. Due to which many youths did
not return to their homes after the end of the training.

Some youth told that the Naxalites harassed and threatened
their family members when they came to know that they have come to join the
force. If we went home, they would have killed us. Due to this fear, they were
waiting for the announcement of the date of recruitment by staying at the place
of their relatives or any acquaintance in the city. If selected, then you will
do a job and otherwise, you will do some other work by staying in the city only.
