"The joint party of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Chhattisgarh Armed Force (CAF) and district force found two IEDs - each weighing 5 kgs, stealthily placed beneath a road between Temrugaron and Chalka villages under Bayanar police station limits, during a search operation," Additional Superintendent of Police Kondagaon Surjit Atri told PTI over phone.
The explosives were defused by the bomb disposal squad, he added.
"It was a major success for the police deployed in the naxal-hotbed as IEDs could have claimed the lives of numerous security personnel as well as civilians," he added.
