Bhubaneswar : Maoists shot dead a worker of the opposition Bharatiya Janata party (BJP) in Orissa’s Malkangiri district, police said Saturday.
The bullet-riddled body of Purnachandra Dalai was found at Chitrakonda near a reservoir, about 700 km from here.
About seven-eight rebels came in a boat and opened fire at him Friday night when he was sitting on the shore, District Superintendent of Police Aniruddha Singh told IANS.
The incident took place a few hours after five rebels surrendered in Rourkela.
Maoists are active in half of Orissa’s 30 districts.
