Even after Chief Minister Biplab Deb’s instruction to the miscreants who are attacking public under cloths of ruling party, there is no respite from the notorious elements of the society in Tripura and ahead of Eid thus there are only tensions prevailing in the state. At Chief Minister’s constituency, house to house notices have been pasted on the main gates, demanding donations from the people of Sirlanka Basti in Agartala. The incident took place under none other than at 9-No Banamalipur constituency today and maximum families are minority.

All the affected families belong to Congress, said the Congress leaders.Congress women activists also visited the East Agartala Police station and submitted a complaint about this.

The attacks started as soon as State Govt took the charge after vote result out scripting a history of Tripura-Violence. However, after Chief Minister’s warning violence rate has decreased but the miscreants are now not even leaving BJP families, just on yesterday at Chandipur a BJP family was attacked.

They have only one message, “We will not kill you. Just give us the asked amount”.
