Under pressure from security forces, Maoists have begun lashing out at people. These families were evicted from Todma and Kohkawada villages in Tushwal Panchayat, which is 360 kilometers from Raipur, because they were responsible for the Thulthuli encounter, which took place on October 3, 2024, and resulted in the deaths of 38 Maoists.
