Malkangiri: Opposing the killing of their cadres in police encounters, the CPI (Maoist) has called for a bandh in Malkangiri district November 20.
The ultras asked the people to observe the bandh through posters found in several parts in the town Saturday.
In a three-page letter, the Andhra-Odisha border special zonal committee of CPI (Maoist) has mentioned about two police encounters that happened October 12 and November 5 during which three Maoist leaders were killed.
In the letter, the Maoists have also mentioned that the government is trying to suppress the demands of citizens regarding solution of their problems. The government is working in the favour of various companies instead of common people, the letter read.
The ultras in the letter have requested the people of Malkangiri to support the bandh call.
