Eastern Frontier Rifles

Families of Eastern Frontier Rifles (EFR) jawans are on a silent march at West Midnapore's Salua to protest the suspension of Special IG Benoy Chakraborty.

The Chief Minister of West Bengal has suspended the Special IG of Eastern Frontier Rifles, a paramilitary force of the state police whose camp was attacked by Maoists.

Five days after 24 people were killed in a Maoist attack on a police camp in the West Midnapore district of West Bengal, the special IG of EFR has blamed the government.

Four days after the massacre of the 24 Eastern Frontier Rifles (EFR) jawans at Silda, the anger among the bereaved families continues to be on the boil. Families of the EFR jawans blocked the road at Salua in West Midnapore district to protest their deaths.

Twenty-four families are grieving in the aftermath of the massacre at Silda, but in the family of the cook at the Eastern Rifle Frontier Camp there is also enormous anger. Anger at the Maoist specially Kishenji, who has left so many widows and fatherless in what he has called Operation Peace Hunt.

The attack by the CPI (Maoist) on a camp of the Eastern Frontier Rifles of West Bengal is another outrageous attempt by the banned organisation to overawe the established authority in the State. I condemn the attack, the statement said.
