more killing ..

More people are being killed. All for political reasons. The naxal rebel group killed 85 Indian security gaurds over the last three days. The prime minister Manmohan Singh, doesn't seem like he cares that much. If this situation were to be in Canada, I'm pretty sure that Harper would send some of our military over to protect security gaurds. It just shows the difference between how the westernized countries act to violence compared to the developing countries. 85 Indian security personnel killed by left-wing rebels

RAIPUR, India, April 6 (Xinhua) -- The death number of Indian security personnel killed by left-wing Naxal rebels Tuesday attained 85 as more bodies were retrieved from the battleground and some injured succumbed to their injuries, said a police spokesman here late Tuesday.

The rebels staged an ambush against the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel in Dantewada district of Chhatisgarh. The dead included CRPF personnel from the 62nd battalion and one Chhattisgarh state police officer.

The Naxals attacked the vehicles of security personnel between Chintalnar and Tademetla area. They first triggered a landmine blast and the moment the vehicle stopped, the rebels ambushed the CRPF team from a hill top, Chhattisgarh Police spokesperson RK VIJ said

CRPF Director General Vikram Srivastava, who rushed from the national capital to the scene, said "the CRPF men were in the forests for operational duty when the Naxals attacked. It is very tragic and sad."

The CRPF team had been camping in the interiors of Tarmetla jungles for the last three days as part of a combing operation and area domination exercise.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who chaired an emergency security meeting with his cabinet officials, described this as "a horrific incident".
