Officials wade through water to hoist Tricolour in Bastar
On 70th Republic Day, police and district officials of Chhattisgarh's Naxal-affected Bastar, waded through water to hoist the Tricolour on banks of river Indravati. "Naxals killed [a] village head," a police official said. "So we came to convey the message that people and police will rule the forests, not Naxals," he added. n
