Three CRPF jawans were killed in an encounter with naxalites in Chhattisgarh’s Dantewada district today.
Sources said 250 naxals were engaged in the encounter with the jawans at Bhejji area in the district, bordering Andhra Pradesh. Three CRPF personnel were killed in the encounter.
They said the naxals have blasted roads to prevent reinforcements from reaching the spot.
This is the third time naxals have struck in as many days. Yesterday, they blew up an anti-landmine vehicle, killing 10 security personnel in the district.
On Thursday, they had opened indiscriminate fire near the camp of Chhattisgarh Armed Force in Narayanpur district, killing four jawans and leaving another injured.
