Hyderabad:
As a part of their nation-wide bandh, Maoists cut-off trees and placed them on a road leading to the temple town of Bhadrachalam in Khammam district of Andhra Pradesh.
A nation-wide bandh call was given by the banned outfit CPI (Maoists) against Operation Green Hunt and the proposed National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC).
A group of Maoists obstructed the road after cutting trees near Devarpalli in Charla mandal of the Bhadrachalam division early morning on Wednesday, a senior police officer of Khammam district said.

Meanwhile, a report from the Khammam district said that a police team and three naxalites exchanged fire near Edugurallapalli village in which a constable sustained minor injury. However, they managed to escape from the scene, police said.
