AGARTALA, Feb 18 (TIWN): Congress legal cell of Tripura Bar association on Thursday alleged serious discrepancy in voters list for the Tripura bar association election which is scheduled to be held on February 25.

Addressing the press meet on Thursday at bar association office, senior advocate Pijush kanti Biswas alleged discrepancy in the voter list. He further said that altogether 72 legal voters were omitted from the voter list.   

Alleging discrepancy in the voters list, he also said that this is done only to lessen the vote count of Congress and to gain more votes in the account of left front.

However, the congress legal cell of the Tripura bar association decided to boycott the election on February 25 if the omitted voters are not enrolled in the list.

If the legal voters whose names are omitted from the list are not included the congress legal cell will boycott votes.

This is done only to cut the votes of congress and it is a planned strategy to make the left win the election, added Biswas.

He also mentioned that as per the rules if anyone’s name is omitted from the list he or she need to be given proper notification but in this case no notification was circulated and without any information altogether 72 names were omitted from the voters list which is not acceptable.

It is to be mentioned here that the election to the Tripura bar association is slated to be held on February 25.
