CPI-Maoists have suffered a major setback in Jharkhand. Notorious Maoist and Zonal Commander Maharaj Pramanik has surrendered before Jharkhand Police. After surrendering, Maharaj is being questioned at secret hideouts in Ranchi. It should be noted that after Patiram Manjhi was given charge of the Saranda area, there was resentment among the tribal leaders in the Maoist organisation.

While on the one hand, the terrorists of the Maoist organisation were engaged in his search, on the other hand, the security forces were also looking for Maharaj Pramanik.
