Simdega (Jharkhand), June 22 (ANI): The security forces have recovered arms and ammunition belonging to the Maoists in Jharkhand's Simdega District.
According to police, on Monday, troops were patrolling the area as part of the ongoing anti- Maoist operations when they spotted some persons near a forest, whom they suspected of being Maoists.
"As we were proceeding towards a forest area we saw some suspected persons. They began running as we chased them.

|Dame Helen Mirren is all praise for Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus|Entertainment[London{London, June 22 (ANI): Dame Helen Mirren has praised pop stars Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus, insisting she is "thrilled" that young girls are embracing their sexuality.
Mirren admitted that she struggled to use her own sexuality as power in her early career, until her outrageous role in movies like 1969's Age of Consent - in which she exposed as the teenage muse of an older painter.
"I much prefer overt sexuality to sleazy, vulgar prurience... I was kind of a trailblazer because I demanded to do it my own way. I'd say, 'I'm not having it put on me by someone else...," the Daily Express quoted her as telling New York Magazine.
"I'm thrilled young girls are claiming their sexuality for themselves. I love bold women: Madonna and Scarlett Johansson - sexy and gorgeous, but not only that. And Miley Cyrus - fantastic! And Lady Gaga. I love the way she's elevated pop to performance art, or dragged performance art down to pop, or maybe made a wonderful amalgam of the two," she added. (ANI)
