In a proactive operation, Gadchiroli Police successfully dismantled a potential threat posed by Maoist insurgents in the Tipagad area. Acting on credible intelligence indicating Maoists` plans to execute IED attacks during the Lok Sabha elections 2024, security forces preemptively deployed extensive area domination and heavy troop presence to thwart any subversive activities.

Following a diligent investigation, authorities pinpointed a location in Tipagad where the insurgents had concealed explosives and Claymore mines. In response, a specialized team, comprising two Bomb Detection and Disposal Squads (BDDS), one unit of C60, and one Quick Action Team (QAT) of the CRPF, was swiftly mobilised to neutralise the threat.
