Chhattisgarh: Rajnath Singh orders CM Raman Singh to probe into dumping of troopers' uniforms

New Delhi, Dec 4: Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh asked Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh to probe the dumping of the uniforms of slain CRPF troopers who were gunned down by Maoists.

"Spoke to Chhattisgarh CM @drramansingh regarding the insult of CRPF martyrs's uniform and asked him to institute an inquiry into this incident," Rajnath Singh said in a tweet.

"I have asked the Chhattisgarh CM to fix the responsibility in this case and punish those involved in insulting the uniform of the deceased CRPF men," he added.

Maoists on Monday gunned down 13 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) troopers engaged in an operation to flush out the rebels from a thickly forested area of Chhattisgarh.
