MALKANGIRI : CPI (Maoist) Korukonda Area Committee leader Ramana has claimed that the government has been falsely accusing Maoists of opposing development works like electrification, drinking water and education projects in Malkangiri.


In a release to mediapersons here on Friday, he demanded power supply to all the villages under the newly-formed Chitrakonda block and alleged that health services are in a disarray. 


He stated there are no health workers or anganwadi centres and schools in the villages causing hardship to the villagers. Some miscreants disconnected electricity supply at Hatguda and once the culprits are identified, their case would be decided in praja court, he wrote in the letter. The Maoist leader assured that they will never obstruct any development works.
