Telangana Rashtra Samiti president K Chandrsekahar Rao and balladeer, Gaddar have termed the encounters in which two top Maoist leaders were killed as fake and urged the Government to hold an inquiry and put forth the facts before the people.
``The fake counters are once again cropping up. The Government should order a probe and place the facts before the people the circumstances that led to the encounter.
As the Telangana movement has the backing of Maoists, the TRS leaders too slammed the encounters. TRS senior leader Harish Rao asked the Government to order a CBI probe into the incident.
The deaths of the top Maoist leaders, Shakamuri Appa Rao and Solipeta Kondal Reddy have sent shock waves across the Maoist cadre all over India.
The police claim that Appa Rao was killed in an encounter near Netikonda village in Pullalachervu mandal while Kondal Reddy was shot dead in an encounter in Tadwai mandal of Warangal district on Friday.
According to sources Shakamuri Appa Rao, a top Maoist leader was picked up in Tirupati along with his three gunmen. Later he was shot dead by the police from a close in range in the Nallamalia forests. The police kept a vigil on Kondal Reddy who was supposed to have a meeting with Shakamuri Appa Rao and nabbed him in Mharashtra. Kondal Reddy was brought to Warangal and was shot dead.
As soon as these incidents took place, Director General of Police Girish Kumar reached the Assembly and informed Home Minister Sabita Indra Reddy and Chief Minister K Rosaiah about the deaths of top Maoist leaders.
The Union Home Ministry in Delhi was in a jubilant mood after hearing the news. They said that just like Andhra Pradesh, the Maoists would be wiped out of Jharkhand and West Bengal.
