AGARTALA, Dec 9 (TIWN): Law Minister Ratanlal Nath while returning after completing meeting at CM's official residence said that he is just a Chuno-Puti, not a Chanakya.

"I am not a Chanakya but a Chuno Puti who follows High Command's directions. We have Modi Ji, Amit Shah Ji, Nadda Ji for taking decisions.......But one thing I want to tell you that the Chief Minister is best. No CM including Manik Sarkar could be as positive as Biplab Deb", said Ratanlal Nath.

Present Status : Sources said that total 22 MLAs including CM Biplab Deb joined in a meeting today but 10 out of them were forced to join. Still 14 MLAs have directly denied to join the meeting and thus remained absent. On the other side, BJP's ally IPFT has opposed CM's decision of Astabal rally on 13th December and BJP High Command has ordered Biplab Deb to cancel his rally programme. The rebelling MLAs have demanded to change Biplab Deb as CM or they will bring no trust motion in the Assembly.
