AGARTALA, July 18 (TIWN): Northeast state Tripura’s Chief Minister Biplab Deb on Wednesday while addressing media during his visit in Bodhjungnagar said, “I will talk to the cabinet to introduce such a law through which a drug-peddler once will be put in jail will not come out from there. Many countries have such laws for criminals and a country can not develop when it has drug smuggling chain”.

Life imprisonment (also known as imprisonment for life, life in prison, life sentence, a life term, lifelong incarceration, life incarceration or simply life) isany sentence of imprisonment for a crime under which convicted persons are to remain in prison either for the rest of their natural life or until paroled. In few countries verdict is given for 99 years jail or 100 years jail, which means also whole life inside a jail.

Tripura CM has demanded such a law for his own state against drug smugglers or businessmen.

CM further said, “Our Govt is working in that direction. The society is recovering from addiction in fast manner. Above 100 people have been arrested in drug-peddling in last four months. Above 20,000 kilo of ganja have been seized”.

“Ganja recovering has become a day to day issue. I feel very pity on the previous Chief Minister Manik Sarkar who has destroyed the whole state with lawless ganja cultivation. In his own area highest ganja was cultivated.Around 1 lakh Kg of ganja is produced in Tripura and this is due to 25 years long misruling. What Manik Sarkar has done it has crossed Satan’s misdeeds”.
