It might be noted that on account of the encounter at Gundala in Yellandu mandal, Maoists called for one day agency bandh on Sunday. The Maoists dropped two letters at the incident site. They condemned fake encounters in the State alleging that they were aimed to kill Maoists.

The letters had the names of Sabari- Cherla Committee and Mahadevpur Area Committee. Reacting to the blast, police said that Maoists exploded the IED just to prove their existence and there is no need for the people to panic.
