Anti-Naxal operation in Chhattisgarh was poorly designed and incompetently executed: Rahul Gandhi

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday alleged that the anti-Naxal operation in Chhattisgarh, in which 22 security personnel were killed, was "incompetently" executed and "poorly designed." Citing a media report quoting CRPF Director General Kuldeep Singh as saying there was no intelligence failure in the operation and an equal number of ultras were killed, Gandhi said, "If there was no intelligence failure then a 1:1 death ratio means it was a poorly designed and incompetently executed operation."

The security personnel were ambushed by Naxals when they were out on a combing operation in a forest along the border of the Bijapur and Sukma districts of the state. Watch the video for more details.
