The operations followed the arrest of Krishna Hansda, a regional committee member of CPI (Maoist), in January 2023. In Jharkhand, searches in Giridih district led to the seizure of mobile phones and SIM cards from suspected over-ground workers believed to supply logistics to CPI (Maoist). In Chhattisgarh, the NIA uncovered connections to a 2022 ambush on electoral authorities and seized Naxal pamphlets and cash.
