Nirmal Superintendent of Police C. Shashidhar Raju on Sunday issued an appeal to veteran Maoists Mylaparu Adellu alias Bhaskar and his wife Kanthi Lingavva to surrender themselves and join the mainstream.

Mr. Raju said the naxalites could utilise health facilities too. Nirmal DSP Upender Reddy, Khanapur CI Jayaram Naik and SI Bhawani Sen were among those who attended.
