Shah praises security forces for killing 31 Naxalites in Kurreguttalu Hills

New Delhi, May 14 (UNI) Reaffirming the government’s commitment to eradicate Naxalism from the country by March 31, 2026, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday praised the security forces for eliminating 31 notorious red ultras in the Kurreguttalu Hills (KGH) on the Chhattisgarh-Telangana border.
On his social media handle X, Shah said the biggest anti-Naxal operation was completed in just 21 days without a single casualty in the security forces.
“Achieving a historic breakthrough in the resolve of Naxal Free Bharat security forces killed 31 notorious Naxalites in the Kurreguttalu Hills (KGH) on the Chhattisgarh-Telangana border in the biggest ever operation against Naxalism”.
“The hill on which the red terror once reigned, today the tricolour is flying proudly. Kurraguttalu Hill was the unified headquarters of big Naxal organisations like PLGA Battalion 1, DKSZC, TSC & CRC, where along with Naxal training, strategies and weapons were also developed.
“Our security forces completed this biggest anti-Naxal operation in just 21 days and I am extremely happy that there was not a single casualty in the security forces in this operation. I congratulate our CRPF, STF and DRG soldiers who faced the Naxalites with their bravery and courage even in bad weather and inaccessible mountainous area. The whole country is proud of you,” he added.
Shah said, “Under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, we are determined to root out Naxalism. I once again assure the countrymen that India is sure to be Naxal-free by 31 March 2026”. UNI RBE SSP
