Senior Maoists instructed us to collect money for the movement but they actually used that money for themselves, never for people’s development, women are badly discriminated against by senior Maoists, senior Maoists exploited the poor tribal youths only for their benefit, married Party members could not live an independent married life, due to the aggressive anti-Maoist operations moving in the forest had become dangerous, fellow tribals were killed based solely on suspicion of being police informers, no attention is given to medical problems of party members, the so called revolution has lost public support and base in Gadchiroli district are some of the reasons of the surrender, said the police.
Maharashtra Government had announced a reward of Rs. 08 lakhs on Bali and Rs. 08 lakhs on Shashikala. After surrender, Bali will receive Rs. 5 Lakhs as reward declared by the Central and state Government for rehabilitation. Shashikala will receive Rs. 5 Lakhs as reward.
