They fired about twenty rounds and predictably there was no retaliation. In the operation nearly sixty extremists took part. As they could not find the Sub Inspector and ASI, they both were out of station. The Superintendent of Police, Bhavan Saxena reached the station in the early hours. The police sealed all the routes connecting to Bhadrachalam, Burgumpadu and Aswaropet. The IG, Ish Kumar and the DIG BL Meena also visited the police station.
