Hyderabad, March 8 -- A total of 130 members of the CPI (Maoist), including a large number of People's Liberation Guerilla Army (PLGA) commandos, surrendered with their weapons before Telangana chief minister A Revanth Reddy in Hyderabad on Saturday, ahead of the March 31 deadline. The cadres handed over 124 firearms, including AK-47 Rifles and over 5,200 live ammunition of various calibre, the highest in recent times in the country with respect to the quality and numbers of arms surrendered by the PLGA. Of the 130 surrendered Maoists, 125 belong to Chhattisgarh, four are from Telangana and a top leader from Andhra Pradesh - Chalasani Navatha alias Chandra, who was working as Dandakaranya special zonal committee member and party's Andhra committee secretary, the Telangana Police said. Some of them constituted the personal protection team of recently surrendered central committee members Thippiri Tirupati alias Devji and Malla Raji Reddy. "With their surrender, the People's Liberation Guerilla Army (PLGA) has now completely lost its existence," the police added. Revanth said, "Their surrender follows the recent talks we had with top leaders of the CPI (M) including Devji, Malla Raji Reddy, Damodar and Narasimha Reddy, who surrendered to the police on February 22," he said. "I am calling upon Ganapathi, who is underground, along with the other Central Committee members, to surrender. Join the mainstream of public life," he said. "The total reward amount of Rs.4.18 crore will be disbursed to the 130 surrendered cadres," DGP B Shivadhar Reddy said. The Centre has set a March 31 deadline to eliminate Left-Wing Extremism from the country. According to officials, in the last two years, 532 Maoists have been neutralised in separate operations, more than 2,700 have surrendered and around 2,000 have been arrested in Chhattisgarh....
