Hopefully, the loss of 76 CRPF personnel of its 62nd battalion in a tactically brilliant and clinically executed ambush laid by the Naxalites in the Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh will mark a point of inflexion in the on-going Green Hunt operations against these left wing extremists. There are a whole lot of questions that have arisen regarding how they were ambushed, whether the laid down SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) was followed and so on. These issues would, no doubt, engage the attention of EN Rammohan who has been appointed by the Government of India to probe into this incident.
