Jharkhand officials pay tribute to jawan killed in IED blast, vow to end Naxal threat.
Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Sunday (April 13, 2025) said the battle against the red rebels is in its last phase in the State.
Mr. Soren and Governor Santosh Kumar Gangwar paid floral tributes to the mortal remains of Jawan, Sunil Dhan, who lost his life in an IED blast in the West Singhbhum district on the previous day.
A wreath-laying ceremony was held in honour of the slain jawan at Jharkhand Jaguar headquarters in Ranchi.
Speaking to reporters, Soren said, "The battle against Naxals is in its last phase. During the anti-naxal operation, we lost several of our jawans. Due to them, we are moving towards a successful operation."
He asserted that the jawan's sacrifice will not go in vain and the operation against Naxals will reach its final destination.
Mr. Gangwar said, "It was an unfortunate incident. The state government is continuously working to minimise such incidents. The government will take care of the martyred's family."
The Jharkhand Jaguar constable, Sunil Dhan, and CRPF Jawan Vishnu Saini were injured in an IED blast in Jharkhand's West Singhbhum district on Saturday.
