AGARTALA, Dec 1 (TIWN): Democratic rights, free speech under severe attack as Biplab Deb illegally shutting down media, blocked TIWN page, crushing democracy.CPI-M Ex-Deputy Speaker Pabitra Kar on Saturday after Jirania attack took place upon the opposition CPI-M candidates during nomination submission ahead of Municipal By-Election, has slammed the BJP Govt for creating "autocracy" in Tripura, saying, "BJP's terror era to be ended and democracy will be restored". "We are informed how media persons are being threatened, harassed if they publish anything against the Govt. From the Department directly it's asked, why such kind of news was published ? Where is democracy standing today ? Media houses are forced to shut down after voicing against State Govt", Pabitra Kar told media at CPI-M West Dist Party Office. The statement came from CPI-M West District cell after their candidates failed to submit nominations due to BJP violence in Jirania, Ranir Bazar area. Resented CPI-M leaders have condemned Home Ministry's failure to conduct a peaceful election procedure.
Pabitra Kar further called all media to be united with neutral role and to fight back the torture.
Since BJP Govt came in power, sever attacks came upon media and many channels as Mrinalini ENN, Din Raat were closed. Like a mafia administration, District Magistrate shutdown 40 years old Daily Desher Katha, which started after 10 days of illegal banning by BJP Govt. It was again started after High Court's verdict on 10th day of suspension.
Attack upon Tripurainfoway.com (TIWN), was never disclosed as which started under dictatorship of Biplab Deb since TIWN made him nationally famous for his controversial remarks as "Internet was existing in Mahabharata's time" and India's pride 1997's beauty queen "Diana Hayden was unworthy to be Miss World". But since that time, instead of developing own oratory skill, Biplab Deb attempted to justify his words true in National Media and thus he became the "shame" for Tripura as nation now cosniders him as a Motormouth.
Then various corrupt officials turned Biplab Deb's ally including Rajiv Singh like IPS officer to tainted IAS GSG Ayyangar.
At the same time, BJP started violent attack upon opposition as well as media.
When TIWN started criticism, then Biplab Deb used his police machinery just like "mafia".
Now, after TIWN Editor Saumen Sarkar was bound to expose Biplab Deb's misruling (as more medias were coming under Police's harassment) along with his suspicious MLAs with fake degrees, state has condemned the BJP Govt.
However, illegally Biplab Deb when couldn't shutdown TIWN, he has banned Tripurainfoway in Tripura under few mobile networks. Now, users are using HOLA as alternative.
Only few time, all democratic rights will be restored in legal way and Biplab Deb to be exposed more and more from High Court to Supreme Court.
