CRPF men carry woman on foot for 7 km

Raipur : The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel carried an ailing tribal woman on a make-shift stretcher on foot for about seven kilometres in the Naxal-affected Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh. A team of CRPF personnel from the 195th Battalion was returning on Sunday after an anti-Maoist operation in the limits of Katekalyan police station when they spotted a woman, around 40 years old, lying by roadside at Naynar village.
“When they made inquiry, the woman, named Kosi, murmured that she had high fever,” said a CRPF official. Airlifting her by helicopter was not possible as the village is surrounded by hills, and summoning an ambulance would have been of no use as the only road linking the village with outside world had been damaged by Maoists, he said.
