Maoists blow school building in Sundargarh district

Rourkela: Maoists blew up yet another
government school building in Rehlatur gram panchayat in
Orissa`s Sundargarh district, police said on Monday.

About 40 ultras entered the building of the Middle
English School in the naxal-infested gram panchayat under K
Balang town, about 120 km from here, yesterday, and looted 50
quintals of rice stored there before setting off an explosion.

Maoists had blasted four school buildings and a
hospital besides two buildings in the gram panchayat last
month.

About 3,000 to 4,000 villagers have left their homes
in panic and were sheltering in camps in K Balang.
