The Maoist letter stated that 320 cadres were killed between December 2024 and November 2025. The list included party general secretary Basavaraju and several senior leaders. The document said that Chhattisgarh alone reported 243 deaths. The organisation described these losses as a major setback to the movement.

The CMC also claimed that retaliation by PLGA units caused casualties among security forces. It stated that 116 personnel were killed and 208 were injured in various attacks. The letter mentioned ambushes, IED blasts, and attacks on police informers and BJP leaders during the year.

The organisation outlined its main priorities for the anniversary period. It included protection of leadership, strict implementation of guerrilla rules, and expansion of activities in forest, plain, and urban regions. The CMC urged cadres to preserve the movement’s “revolutionary spirit” despite mounting losses.
