Law And Order Has Collapsed in Tripura, alleges CPI (M)

The opposition Communist Party of India (M) in Tripura on Saturday alleged that law and order has collapsed in the state ever since the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Indigenous Peoples’ Front of Tripura (IPFT) combine came to power in the state.

The CPI (M) sought the Director General of Police’s intervention to improve the law and order situation in the state. A three-member delegation of CPI(M) led by party secretary Goutam Das met the DGP, Rajib Singh in Agartala and submitted a memorandum, detailing incidents of attacks on the opposition party workers “carried out by goons of the BJP and IPFT”.

Das claimed 14 party activists were killed and over 2,420 assaulted, and 346 CPI (M) offices vandalised since the combine formed government. “We do not seek any additional favour. Political parties should have the freedom of expression in a democratic country,” said former Tripura minister Jitendra Chowdhury, who was a part of the delegation.
