The April 2010 Dantewada Maoist attack[1][2] was an 6 April 2010 ambush by Naxalite-Maoist insurgents from the Communist Party of India (Maoist) near Chintalnar village in Dantewada district, Chhattisgarh, India, leading to the killing of 76 CRPF policemen and 8 Maoists[3] — the deadliest attack by the Maoists on Indian security forces.[4][5][6]

The attack occurred when over 85 officers from the central paramilitary force Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and a local police group were conducting an area domination exercise in the Bastar tribal region of the Indian state of Chhattisgarh.[7]

Ambush style attacks on Indian Police have been repeated since by Maoist militants.[8]
