During the current year (upto 11th July, 2014) 620 incidents of LWE violence took place which resulted in casualties of 61 Security Forces personnel and 127 civilians.
The Union Government deploys Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) in the LWE affected states to assist the State Police in counter-insurgency. The State Police undertakes anti-Naxal operations along with Central Armed Police Forces and also carries out joint operations with the State Police of the bordering States, as and when required and depending upon the ground situation. Per-se, no separate Inter-State Joint Force exists to undertake anti-Naxal operations.
