Subject: [Assam] Assamese boy Martyred in Bastar
Mr. Jagannath Chootia from Bordoloni, Dist. Dhemaji, Assam was killed in an
ambush in the remote "Narayanpur" area of Bastar district in Chattisgarh
yeaterday between 3-4 pm. Alongwith him OC, Shri Vikas Chander from Bihar and 5
other constables belonging to Chattisgarh police were also annihilated.
Jagannath joined 43rd CRPF as constable in 1991. He was posted most of the
time at J&K and took part in anti insurgency operations there.
Apparently they have fallen into a trap laid by the Naxalites. Sources with
CRPF say that the patrol team in which Jagannath was a part of, went to
retrieve the bodies of a few policemen killed by the ultras in another ambush.
They were ambushed at the same site, and all of them died on the spot.
His body will be flown to Guwahati tomorrow from Raipur enroute Delhi and taken
to his village in Dhemaji district by road. He is survived by his 2 and half
years old son and wife. His mother is quite old and father who was a
Rashtrapati awardee teacher expired a few years back of a sudden heart attack.
His sacrifice may contribute to make a strong India. He was my first cousin and
I am proud of him.
