AGARTALA, March 16 (TIWN): Rare among the rarest cases where a State Govt went to its extreme level from blocking websites to Editor's passport cancellation attempt and issuing Look out Circular (LoC) against the Editor, Tripura is again in National Media headlines for wrong reasons and the credit goes to Biplab Deb for his Tughluqian decision and intolerance against criticism. It is not that Biplab Deb is intolerant against media and opposition but right now, majority of the BJP MLAs want a replacement of Biplab Deb from CM post.

It was recently seen that Tripura is in National Media headlines and even international Media discussed on it after Biplab Deb said Home Minister Amit Shah planning to expand BJP's rule in Nepal and Sri Lanka and now within a month, Deb has taken Tripura's name at National, International level after High Court quashed Look out Circular (LoC) against Tripurainfoway.com Editor Saumen Sarkar. Various national / international media which have already covered like SOCIALNEWS.XYZ, Times of Republic News, The Hawk, UNI, CanIndia, The Northeast Affairs etc.

In a landmark verdict, Tripura High Court has not only quashed Look out Circular (LoC) against TIWN Editor, but also restricted the State Govt from such illegal acts without Court's permission. High Court also mentioned about the nature of the crime allegation and hypothetical allegations, actions of the State Govt are violation to personal liberty. Addressing media, Advocate Amitabha Roy Barman has thanked Judiciary for upholding the freedom of speech and personal liberty. "It appears from the nature of allegations that it is not a case of extortion but an „attempt? which may not fall within the serious crime. Moreover, the respondents No.1 and 2 did not produce the case diary to support their case of serious fraud or commission", High Court stated in the final order. High Court Advocate Amitabha Roy Barman further criticized Tripura Govt's motivated, illegal actions against TIWN Editor based on a petty case which was filed by a Hardcore-Criminal who was arrested many times by Tripura Police.
