NEW DELHI, May 2: Students sympathetic to the Leftist cause and labourers in unorganised sector were used by Maoists to increase their influence and for overground work in the capital, police sources said today.
Sources said Gopal Mishra and his wife Anu, who were arrested last week, were into “talent hunting” and had used the services of some “Left-leaning” students to propagate Maoist ideology in the city. Maoists were using “sympathetic” students for “overground” party work in Delhi where they were also organizing displaced labourers under its umbrella, they said.
Sources said Maoists have “some influence” among a section of “brilliant” students in Jawaharlal Nehru University and Delhi University. The ultra-Left is targeting those students who are disillusioned with the mainstream Left.
