2010 Dantewada bombing
The 2010 Dantewada bombing was a significant terrorist attack that occurred on April 6, 2010, in the Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh, India. The incident involved a landmine explosion targeting a convoy of personnel from the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), resulting in the deaths of at least 76 security forces. The attack was attributed to Maoist insurgents, who have maintained a long-standing insurgency against the Indian government, particularly in central and eastern states. This bombing represented one of the deadliest assaults on security forces in the region, highlighting the ongoing challenges posed by Maoist violence and underscoring the complexities of counterinsurgency efforts in India. The event prompted widespread condemnation and raised concerns about the effectiveness of security strategies in combating leftist extremism.
