Man arrested in NHPC engineers' kidnap case
Torpa is looking for a second chance to migrate from a poor village to a modern urban cluster but tension is building between those who want development and those against it. For two decades, National Hydel Power Corporation (NHPC) proposed, and some local tribal groups opposed, the setting up of the Koel-Karo hydro-electric project there, and it was finally abandoned last year.
Sources said the kidnappers contacted the families of NHPC General Manager (projects) T Mandal and Chief Engineer K Singh in Delhi to convey their demand.
T Mandal, general manager (project) with NHPC, had been abducted from Vaishali district in Bihar on November 19.
Official sources said that besides arms and ammunition, two maps showing general area of Uri were recovered from the four slain terrorists, who are now believed to be from Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Tayiba.
