Attack time of February to June
Retired commandant from BSF, Laik Ahmed Siddiqui, says, ‘After February, the weather changes. Due to the autumn season, there are major changes in the forest. There are no leaves on the trees, due to which the Naxalites sitting at a far height keep looking at the movement of the soldiers easily. This is the reason that Naxalites who wait for big attacks all year carry out TCOC in February-June.
