Naxals have labs to test weapons
Naxals have now developed a fully hi-tech weapons testing laboratory similar to the ones used by the defence forces and the DRDO. This has been revealed during investigations by the National Investiga-tion Agency and other Central intelligence agencies following the arrest of Sadnala Ramakrishna, alias Techie Anna, the head of the Naxals’ technical committee.
Intelligence agencies have information that the Naxals have two fully developed weapons testing labs operational in Chhattisgarh, where they have been putting to test their sophisticated weapons like rocket launchers, claymore mines and a range of booby traps. Sources said before any new weapon is inducted for mass use by the Naxal cadres, they are first put through stringent checks at these testing laboratories.
Though security agencies have launched a massive hunt to track the exact location of these two laboratories, it is suspected that they are situated deep inside the thick jungles in the Abujhmad region.
It is believed that these laboratories are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and the Naxals have invested crores of rupees in them.
