Kolkata : Two members of the military wing of the outlawed Communist Party of India-Maoist were arrested Monday in West Bengal’s West Midnapore district, police said Monday.
“Two PLGA (People’s Liberation Guerrilla Army) members were arrested from Jhargram sub-division in a joint forces’ operation. One of them is Parameswar Mahato. The identity of the other person is yet to be known,” West Midnapore Superintendent of Police Manoj Verma told IANS over phone.
