In a significant development for India's counter-Maoist operations, two high-value women Maoists with bounties of Rs 14 lakh and Rs 17 lakh surrendered within five days in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. Their confessions reveal shocking insights into Maoist operations, gender exploitation within the movement, and crucial intelligence about remaining cadres in the tri-state MMC zone.
