On February 3, Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister Of Chhattisgarh, Vijay Sharma visited the Naxal-affected Silger village on the Sukma-Bijapur border in Sukma district. It is among the worst Naxal-affected area in the state.
The Deputy CM's visit came days after a recent Naxal attack near Silger village that claimed the lives of three individuals and left 14 others injured on January 30.
Sharma engaged with soldiers and local villagers in Bastar's Silger inquiring about their well-being and gaining insights into the prevailing situation. He took the opportunity to apprise the villagers of various government schemes aimed at fostering development and improving living standards in the region.
