The Senior police officer said that Naveen wanted to join the mainstream because he grew "frustrated" with the ideology propagated by the Maoists he decided to surrender. "Besides, he also had some health issues," Shivakumar said.
An assistance of Rs 5000 was given to the ultra, he said.
The SP said that six top leaders belonging to the Central Committee of Maoists and 32 cadres from Karimnagar district are involved in underground operations.
