Former CM Biplab Deb accuses Opposition for attack on BJP workers

On Friday, Rajya Sabha MP Biplab Kumar Deb accused miscreants backed by CPIM and Congress-backed for unleashing a series of attacks on BJP workers at night on polling day across Tripura.

After visiting and inspecting the victims of attacks at GBP hospital in Agartala, Biplab Deb alleged that CPIM and Congress-backed goons attacked several BJP workers in different places yesterday late at night due to frustration.

Former CM added, “We (BJP) have registered FIRs also. I came here to see the victims. Around 5 workers of our party sustained severe injuries. They have unleashed the attack on common people and on BJP workers across the state”.

He alleged that children also were not spared from such attacks. Deb said that the situation is informed to the Director General of Police and Chief Minister.

He said, “Families of BJP workers came under attack in around 15 places. Many more people are admitted in other hospitals”. He added that the miscreants took the advantage of the night and less security to launch this attack when everyone was busy in shifting EVMs to the strong room after the election.

Deb further said that some persons were arrested as well as believed that police will take strict action and would arrest the rest of the culprits.
