AGARTALA, July 30 (TIWN): In a daring robbery attempt, Tripura CM Biplab Deb's wife Niti Deb led NGO Purvaudaya's Heart of Humanity scheme office was targeted by a thief, which is located on the heart of the capital city Agartala. The office was inaugurated just before 1 week.

However, after suspecting, Police immediately arrested him. Reported police caught him red-handed while he was stealing many items. Due to lockdown, heavy securities were on road, who underlined this robbery incident and nabbed him red-handed.

The thief first ate few dry food items and then started robbing the store but by that time, police came to the spot and arrested him. 

NGO, Purvaudaya, on last Thursday launched a project to assist the poor and the needy people by connecting the well-off section of society with underprivileged people.

Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb, Deputy Chief Minister Jishnu Dev Varma, Revenue Minister Narendra Chandra Debbarma, in separate functions inaugurated three outlets of Purvaudaya in the city and its outskirts under the NGO's "Heart of Humanity" scheme in which clothes and food would be distributed to the poor free of cost.

Purvaudaya's General Secretary and social worker Niti Deb said at these outlets the well-off citizens will donate unused and discarded items like clothes, mattresses, quilts, blankets, shoes, toys, books etc which are still in good condition so that the needy people can take them for their use.

"Apart from garments, toys for children, books, artefacts, bags, etc, there would also be special arrangements for food with a refrigerator installed inside the outlet. Many families, restaurants, hotels find that a good amount of food items remained unused not only during any programme or festival but also almost every morning. They can leave these food items in the 'Heart of Humanity' outlets to be shared with less fortunate people," she told the media.

Niti Deb, wife of Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb, said that the surplus food which would otherwise have gone waste will fill many hungry stomachs.

In that office today theft incident has taken place, although, the thief was caught red-handed.
