AGARTALA / KOLKATA, May 13 (TIWN): With the appointment of National BJP executive member Tathagata Roy as Tripura's Governor, Amit Shah signalled a change in BJP's plan for the last communist baston of India. Also, by keeping Modi’s close P.B.Achariya engaged as Governor of Assam, BJP central leadership is hopeful to wrestle Assam from Congress in 2016 assembly election. After unprecedented success in the Lok Sabha polls, BJP sounded the bugle for its 2016 assembly election preparations so that the party would be able to form the next government in the state. BJP won seven parliamentary seats in Assam, an increase of three from 2009, and reached its highest-ever tally in Assam. As Tripura BJP lacks organization skills and disciplined hierarchy like CPI-M in towns and interior areas, so it needed someone like next Governor Tathagata Roy to energize the State Unit and increase vote share in 2018 Tripura Assembly election. Governor Tathagata Roy is expected to target Manik Sarkar led State Govt for all its wrongdoings, corruption, embezzlement of Central funds in coming days. As CPI-M is marginalized to few LS seats in Bengal and Tripura, so BJP's goal is to wipe-out of Left Parties in next 2019 Lok Sabha Poll. Recent patch-up between Modi and Mamata already unnerved CPI-M and Congress.

"An unholy nexus has developed between Mamata and Modi. If Mamata wants to save herself from the CBI probe in Saradha, Modi wants to pass anti-people bills in parliament," said Bengal state Congress president Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury.

In his maiden visit to the state, BJP’s All India President Amit Shah virtually exposed the “Blame Centre” game played by the ruling CPI(M) here for long.   

Addressing party workers and supporters at the Swami Vivekananda Stadium for the first time, the firebrand BJP president came down heavily on the ruling CPI(M) government led by chief minister Manik Sarkar.

The BJP president’s speech of forty minutes practically left the CPI(M)’s “Blame Centre” attitude wide exposed.

Shah said that the Tripura chief minister feverishly lies to the people when he says that the centre has stopped REGA scheme. 

It may be mentioned here that the ruling CPI-M leadership here blamed the central government for the ongoing REGA debacle and tried to propagate the theory that the central government was closing the REGA schemes.

The BJP president on the contrary criticised chief minister Manik Sarkar for misleading the people on the issue of REGA. Mr. Shah informed the gathering that the central government is neither closing the REGA shcemes nor is bringing about any change in the schemes.

The BJP president’s accusation that the onus of failure in paying the REGA dues lies solely on the state government only proved the state CPI(M) spokesperson Gautam Das wrong.  It may be mentioned here that the recently nominated Central Committee member of CPIM, held the central government responsible for the delay in REGA payment saying that the new mode of payment of REGA wages was not informed to the state government in advance creating confusion in the distribution system. 

The corruption ridden CPI(M) government was also attacked by the firebrand BJP president by saying that the central government fund for developmental activities actually lend up  in the party fund.

 Shah alleged the ruling CPI(M) of politicising the police saying that the people of the state belonging to different political ideology are subjected to harassment and the police takes partisan role in performing their duties.

The much talked about proximity of CPI(M) party leaders especially of chief minister Manik Sarkar’s patronage of Rose Valley and other chit fund companies here got a boost when the BJP president said that the chit fund companies always surrounded aroud the communist party and the party cannot shed the responsibilty of the poor people being cheated for their closeness with the chit fund companies.  

It may be mentioned here that the Tripura chief minister was blamed for the rise of chit fund companies in the state which ultimately duped the poor people of the state of hundreds of crores of money.
