Accident – Death – Obituary News :
Hyderabad, June 3, 2024 – A tragic incident unfolded in the dense forests of Telangana’s Mulugu district on Monday, as one individual lost their life in a suspected bomb blast believed to have been planted by Maoist insurgents.
The unfortunate incident took place near Kongala village in Vajedu mandal, an area that shares borders with the state of Chhattisgarh. The victim, identified as Yellandula Yesu, aged 55 and a resident of Jagannathpuram village, was part of a group of five men who had ventured onto a hillock to collect firewood.
Tragedy struck when one of the men inadvertently stepped on a hidden explosive device, suspected to have been strategically placed by Maoists, triggering a fatal explosion that claimed his life on the spot. The four remaining individuals managed to escape the blast and quickly raised alarm within the local community.
Upon receiving the distressing news, law enforcement authorities swiftly mobilised and made their way to the forested area. Concerned for the safety of the villagers, the police issued warnings advising against approaching the site, citing fears of additional landmines potentially scattered by Maoist forces.
With suspicions of Maoist presence looming large in the region, security forces heightened their vigilance and initiated a thorough combing operation to scour the area for any further threats. Telangana Police have been maintaining a vigilant stance, particularly in districts bordering Chhattisgarh, owing to the escalating Maoist activities reported in the neighbouring state.
Over the past decade, authorities have successfully contained Maoist insurgencies in Telangana by closely monitoring and fortifying districts that share borders with Chhattisgarh and Maharashtra. Despite these efforts, the recent incident serves as a stark reminder of the persistent threat posed by Maoist elements in the region.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and loved ones of the deceased, as the community grapples with the aftermath of this tragic event. The investigation into the incident is ongoing, with authorities committed to ensuring the safety and security of all residents in the region.
