Bijapur (Chhatisgarh), July 7 : Naxal violence has claimed the lives of many persons, security forces personnel, policemen and innocent villagers caught in the cross fire in Chattisgarh, Jharkhand and Orissa.

While there is spotlight on the violent incidents and the victims, hardly any attention is paid to the families of the victims of Naxal violence, except for a short while when the Government announces some compensation.

The violence indulged in by the Naxals kills not just the individuals. In addition, it ruins the entire family: parents, widows and children.

Recently, two residents-- Bhaman and Huma-- of Kotarpal Village in Chattisgarh’s Bijapur district fell vicitim to Naxals’ bullets.
