AGARTALA, July 18 (TIWN): Tripura Law Minister Ratanlal Nath has lamented over heavy financial crisis in the state Tripura, just after National Congress had released tapes-records of BJP Union Minister, leaders about MLA Horse-Trading with Congress MLAs at Rajasthan. This exposure has been first ever in the history and to be investigated by Rajasthan Police’s Special Operations Group (SOG). Multiple audiotapes of MLAs of the Sachin Pilot camp purportedly discussing toppling the Ashok Gehlot government have gone viral on social media. In the tapes, MLA Bhanwar Lal Sharma is purportedly heard discussing monetary transactions and 30 MLAs who will support Pilot. Congress on Friday suspended MLA Bhanwar Lal Sharma after his leaked audiotapes have created a storm.

Such issues, when comes out, questions raise specially from states like Tripura where BJP had promised a HIRA but now left out with just with heavy imposition of taxes on the public.

The pre-election promised “Double Engine” Government is yet non-functional as amid the alleged MLA ‘Horse Trading’ in Rajasthan by ruling BJP, the BJP Govt at Centre couldn’t provide Tripura like states sufficient funds and thus, State is now dependent upon its huge taxation imposed in last 2 and half years. Tripura Law Minister Ratanlal Nath on Friday has alleged extreme financial crisis existing in his state amid BJP Govt is ruling over here for last 2 and half years. Minister Nath was talking about 3% increment facilitation to the employees as per annual norms and said that many states are cutting salaries of employees but Tripura Govt has not cut it, rather decided to increment it. “We are capable to do it, amid Extreme Financial Crisis situations”, said Ratanlal Nath to media.

Ultimately, after all these, it is the common men, who are paying extra for fuel and commodity hikes and poor in lockdown didn't get direct financial benefit.
