Major General Raden Bintoro (23 December 1924 – 13 June 1986) was an Indonesian military officer.

He began his military career after attending the Renseitai (officer training unit) during the Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies.

He was then put in command of a Defenders of the Homeland — a paramilitary volunteer unit — platoon in Kedu after finishing education from Renseitai.

[1] Bintoro became the commander of the Cenderawasih (Papua) Military Region on 23 March 1966, replacing Kartidjo.

[6] A year later, on 29 March 1967, he launched an operation codenamed Bharatayudha, which was aimed to crush rebel groups under the leadership of Ferry Awom and Lodewijk Mandatjan and to safeguard the Act of Free Choice process.

However, the operation shocked and traumatized most Papuans, as they never thought Indonesians would launch an open warfare against these groups.
