C’garh leader to replace Kishenji?
One of the names making round in the Naxal circle in Chhattisgarh to replace Kishenji, the chief military strategist of the CPI (Maoist) gunned down in an encounter in West Bengal, is Gudsa Usendi, alias K. Rama Chandra Reddy, intelligence sources said here on Saturday. Usendi is a spokesman of Dandakaranya Special Zonal Committee (DSZC) which is active in Bastar.
Usendi, 50, a native of Andhra Pradesh, had shifted to Bastar in Chhattisgarh nearly two decades ago.
He is said to be the architect of building Abujhmad, a densely-forested area of nearly 4,000 sq km extending from south Bastar to Gadichiroli district in Maharashtra, a safe haven for top rebel leaders a decade ago.
He was also said to be close to Kishenji, who, intelligence sources said, had visited Bastar in last summer to recoup after being shot in an encounter.

Kapadia: Will bring down case pendency
S.S. NEGI
New Delhi, Nov. 27
Chief Justice of India S.H. Kapadia on Saturday took up the challenge of bringing down the huge pendency of cases with the judiciary to “zero level” dispelling the notion of under-performance by the courts and instead squarely blamed the executive for high rate of litigation due to low redressal of people’s problems by it.
Dispelling the notion that the huge pendency of 3.15 crore cases with the judiciary at all levels was due to its under-performance, the CJI said in fact the performance of the courts had rather been “commendable” as they had maintained a very high rate of disposal. “Awareness about the rights (among people) has grown while correspondingly redressal from the executive has been reduced,” CJI said.
