Villager Injured in Naxal IED Blast in Jharkhand
Imagine some bad guys planted a hidden bomb in the forest to hurt the police.
A local man named Sahu Barjo was collecting firewood and accidentally stepped on the bomb.
The bomb went off, and he got badly hurt.
The police came to help, but it took a long time to get him to the hospital.
People in the village were upset because they thought the police would have helped faster if it was one of their own who was hurt.
