Maoist Couple With Rs 5 Lakh Bounty Bid Farewell To Arms To Lead A Normal & Happy Life!

A bridge in Odisha’s Maoist-affected Malkangiri district is changing lives. Inaugurated on July 26, the Gurupriya Bridge has not only re-connected 151 villages that were cut off from mainland Malkangiri for 50 years due to a hydel project, it also helped a young Maoist couple walk over to the mainstream.

Waga Urmami and his 20-year-old wife Mude Madhi admit that a permanent security camp set up in Jantapai to protect the bridge, along with enhanced combing operations ahead of its inauguration, prompted them to give up arms on July 29.
