It was just 1 week before that Tripura CM Manik Sarkar told the common masses during his campaigns on hills that “IPFT & their activity is not acceptable” and he also said, “The concept of Twipra land will remain as an imaginary land”.

But CM can’t ignore that, when this group of extremists are doing its best to spread violence in the state, especially in hilly areas.

Such incidents are increasing day by day and Govt. should take these matters seriously to stop rising violence at Hills.
