Malkangiri: Two days after a Maoist camp was busted in Nuapada district, security forces have seized huge amount of explosive materials of the banned outfit from a forest in Malkangiri district on Friday.

According to Malkangiri police, while the jawans of SOG and DVF were carrying out a combing operation along Odisha-Andhra Pradesh border, they were informed about an explosive dump in a forest near Maribeda and Nademanjari villages under Jodamba police limits in Swabhiman Anchal.

As per the information, the security forces went to the forest area and launched a search operation. They found 4 tiffin bombs, 20 web belts, 19 jungle caps and a large amount of medicines left behind by the Maoists before escaping from the area.
