Narayanpur (Chhatishgarh)-In a chilling act of violence, Maoists have once again unleashed terror in the conflict-prone region of Chhattisgarh. Two government school teachers, Budharam Kadiyam and Ramshankar Yadav, were brutally abducted and later murdered in cold blood by having their throats slit — a shocking incident that has plunged the entire area into an atmosphere of fear and trauma.
The slain teachers were serving at a government school in Remawand village in Narayanpur District. According to reports, they were returning home from school when they were intercepted and forcibly taken away by the Maoists. Later, their blood-soaked bodies were found on a roadside near the village, leaving the local community stunned and grieving.
Posters left at the scene of the crime revealed that the Maoists had claimed responsibility for the killings. In those handwritten notes, the insurgents accused the two educators of being police informers — a charge frequently used by Maoist groups to justify such brutal executions. The murders appear to be part of a broader strategy to instill fear among government employees and deter them from working in remote and vulnerable regions.
Following the discovery of the bodies, security forces and police personnel rushed to the site and initiated a full-scale investigation. A massive search operation has been launched across the area to track the perpetrators and prevent further attacks. The region is now under heightened alert as the authorities attempt to restore order and reassure the frightened local population.
This incident has struck deep fear into the hearts of other government workers posted in remote tribal areas, many of whom already operate under constant threat. The savage killing of two educators — whose only fault was serving in a violence-ridden, underdeveloped region — raises serious questions about the safety of frontline workers and the reach of state protection in Maoist-dominated zones.
As the investigation continues and the families of the victims mourn their loss, the need for stronger security measures and long-term conflict resolution in these regions has never felt more urgent. The voices of Budharam and Ramshankar, silenced forever, now echo as a grim reminder of the harsh realities that still haunt the Red Corridor.
