Maoist attack in Orissa leaves 5 dead
There's has been violence in the communally sensitive Kandhmal district of Orissa again. Five people, including a VHP leader, were killed late on Saturday night when suspected Maoists attacked a Hindu ashram school for girls in Tumudi Bandh. The attackers hurled bombs and sprayed bullets during the attack which lasted barely 15 minutes. Eighty-year-old VHP leader Swami Laxmananand Saraswati had been spearheading an anti-Christian campaign in Orissa for the last 35 years.
