Says the act was of Maoists to mark their presence in the state
Hyderabad, September 7, 2007
The Home Minister, K Jana Reddy along with the Director General of Police, Basit visited the Chendodugutta in Kota mandal on Friday evening where the Maoists triggered a powerful land mine to target the lives of N Janardhana Reddy and his wife N Rajyalakshmi.
Speaking to media at Nellore, Jana Reddy said that the CPI (Maoist) targeted the former Chief Minister N Janardhana Reddy for imposing ban on the erstwhile People's War Group. The successive governments continued the ban on Naxals. The Maoists made the abortive attempt on the lives of the former Chief Minister and his wife N Rajyalakshmi to make their presence felt.
The Home Minister said that the Government would not cow down by the attack and continue the aggressive stance against the CPI (Maoists). While condemning the blast in which two Congress activists and a car driver were killed, he said that the UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi conveyed her condolences to the bereaved families. He assured that all possible help will be extended to the deceased.
