Raipur, CGnews: In the name of "donations to Maoists", hundreds of youths in Chhattisgarh who had no connection with the Maoist movement became fake Maoists and extorted upto Rs 220 million last year. Their targets ranged from businessmen to officials to even top policemen, police say.

After megastar Amitabh Bachchan, Bollywood actor Aamir is under the scanner for purchasing 11 and 8 acres agricultural land in Pune district by allegedly claiming he is a farmer.

 

Farmers, who have lost their land due to the Pavner dam, are waiting for the land in the exchange. They are in the secular queue to think that their number will come. But instead of them farmland are captured by these fake farmers. They are leaders, celebrities, industrialists and actors of Bollywood. Filmy farming for Serial suicides of farmers

"In 2006, police had received a few cases of extortions by fake Maoists but in 2007 it was a huge collection made by unemployed youths in the state's southern region of Bastar," the official said.

"Those who extort will also not mind paying some amount to Maoists to have friendly relations to operate their business. But the businessmen never know whether they are paying the money to genuine or fake militants," he added.

"In several recent cases, local businessmen paid extortion amounts to fakeMaoists as monthly donation and within a week again received extortion letters for the same month's donation sent by genuine Maoists. Finally, the Maoists took the fakes to task," he said.

Sources say a majority of the fake Maoists are outsiders who settled in Bastar in recent years, though a few tribal youths who had past association with Maoists but have now joined the mainstream also extort occasionally to get over sudden family problems and other crises.

Don’t blame only these fake Maoists. Above you find fake seculars and fake filmy farmers. Now you may find fake poor in Rashtrapati Bhavan, 10 Janpath and parliament.

There is a flood of fake poor in the Chhattisgarh

Fake kidnapped the ration cards of poor BPL for getting Rice @ Rs. 3 per kg through Guerrilla war of 420 by the help of fake leaders and bureaucrats. Chhattisgarh government officials of Food and Supply Departments are going to nab these Guerrilla war corrupt criminals by adopting Guerrilla war technique. It is fact that ‘Iron cut iron’.

"I estimate the extortion in the name of Maoists was over Rs.22 crore (Rs.220 million) last year in the state with 90 per cent of the extortions made in Kanker, Bijapur, Narayanpur, Bastar and Dantewada districts that jointly form about 40,000 sq km area of Bastar," he added. "The Rs 22 crore is an estimated figure as cases of extortion sought by fake Maoists are hardly reported because the affected people or firms are not sure whether the extortionists were genuine Maoists or they were just exploiting the terror of Maoists," Sify reported.

"Once business people receive a letter written in red ink in Bastar, they ensure that the payment is made immediately and without informing anyone, even close family," said a police officer posted in the Maoist hotbed of Konta in Dantewada district.

"Several unemployed youths became richer in 2007 just by posing as Maoists and extorting a huge sum from local transport operators, government officials including low-ranked policemen, shop owners, small businessmen, tea vendors and staff and contractors of the National Mineral Development Corp (NMDC) and Essar Steel," the source said.

"Extortion is a safe game in Chhattisgarh, mainly in Bastar, because your identity will never be exposed," said a police officer posted in the Pakhanjur area of Kanker district.

"With the rise of Maoist militancy in Chhattisgarh and India's two private steel majors' decisions (Tata Steel and Essar Steel) to install plants in Bastar, the extortion racket by genuine and fake Maoists will touch new heights in the coming years," said a senior police official posted at the state's police headquarters here..
