RAIPUR: Less than a week after warning BJP workers to quit party or die, Maoists killed a BJP worker, Kudiam Mado, in Bijapur on Wednesday, accusing him of working as a police informer.
Last Wednesday, Maoists kidnapped and killed two local BJP workers, who were former sarpanchs. Thirteen BJP men and three from Congress have been murdered by Maoists since Feb 2023.
