The outlawed CPI (Maoist) has blamed Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh and state Health Minister Amar Agrawal for the deaths of 13 women during a recent sterilisation drive and sought their resignation.

The Maoists dropped pamphlets and put up banners in Chhattisgarh's insurgency-hit Dantewada district protesting against the sterilisation tragedy.

"The pamphlets and posters were recovered from a road near Kumharras village under Dantewada police station limits last evening," Dantewada Superintendent of Police Kamlochan Kashyap told PTI.
