Eight Maoists, including two women, carrying cumulative rewards of ₹30 lakh on their heads, surrendered before the security forces in Chhattisgarh’s Narayanpur district on Wednesday (August 20, 2025), police said.
The Maoists turned themselves in, citing “inhuman and hollow” Maoist ideology. They said they were also impressed by the police’s rehabilitation drive and the state government’s new surrender and rehabilitation policy, he added.
