AGARTALA, July 5 (TIWN): With the so called "SamporkoChinno " with 5 MLAs of Tripura , Trinamool Congress has officially made the ground ready for Sudip Roy Barman & Co known as CPI-M's B Team to join BJP . Yesterday All India Trinamool Congress Secretary General Partha Chatterjee said that Trinamool Congress decided to cut its relation with 5 TMC MLAs in Tripura as they do not abide by the discipline of the party. According to close sources of Partha Chatterjee actually suspended these 5 MLAs due to anti-party activities . During the last few months Sudip Roy Barman & Co were in touch with BJP leadership like Ram Madhav, BJP Organizing Secretary and Assam Minister cum Convener of North East Democratic Alliance (NEDA) in order to join BJP . And Sudip Barman recently made it clear that he and his team will not cast their votes in favour of the Preaidential candidate whom CPI-M will support. After this declaration it was obvious that Team Sudip will vote for BJP's Presidential Candidate Ramnath Kovind.

Thus, in the name of "SamporkoChinno " TMC has suspended the 5 Tripura MLAs namely Sudip Roy Barman,Asish Kumar Saha, DbachandraHrangkhal , Pranajit Singha Roy and Biswabandhu Sen. Another TMC MLA Dilip Sarkar, who is under going treatment in Delhi , has escaped such situation due to his illness and  also he did not utter a word a word against TMCs stand. 

It is to be mentioned here that Sudip Roy Barman & Co has always been known for creating inner party chaos within the Congress .Whenever , Sudip and even his father were in charge of Tripura Pradesh Congress, the result was disastrous for Congress. And over the years Sudip and his father extended their assistance towards the CPI-M especially since Manik Sarkar has been the Chief Minister .

     Notably Samir Ranjan Barman's tenure as Chief Minister is still regarded as the black days in the political history of Tripura with massive violence , breakdown of administrative machinery and law and order situation , goondagiri purely patronized by Samir Ranjan Barman and his trusted leaders during that time . Again , Samir Ranjan Barman is the only person , who led the downfall of Congress govt in Tripura in the year 1993 .

    Only a few monthsbefore Sudip Barman's group created an atmosphere of panic and hooliganism at Agartala when TMC workers were seen beating the BJP karyakartas in front of West Police Station . The BJP workers and supporters couldnt have forgotten this incident .And before 2013 Assembly Poll Sudip Barman's brother was arrested with a pistol from his brick field . This was raised in every political rally by CPI-M leaders including ManikSarkar .

In 2013 assembly poll Congress candidate from Ram Nagar constituency and Subal Bhowmik of Sonamura constituency lost their respective seats due to the alleged conspiracy  framed by Sudip Barman group. As such soon after the election SubalBhowmik and SurajitDatta left Congressparty. Both are now in BJP .

    Even with in a few months of joining Team Sudip simply grabbed all major posts in TMC removing the senior leaders like RatanChakraborty ,Arun Chandra Bhowmik and many others. At this crucial juncture it is obvious that even if Team Sudip joins BJP , it will try to create similar situations as this group is known as CPI-M's protector in Tripura.

     There is no denying of the fact that a vast majority of the voters in Tripura do not have the least faith in Sudip Barman &Co . Their images on common are not at all fresh . This group is known for it hypocracy .

     Quite surprisingly BJP leadership at the Centre are showing much interest in bringing Sudip Roy Barman & Co to BJP . This attempt is being seen as a Hara-Kiri by a large number of people. Comkon people have just started to believe that BJP can remove CPI-M from Tripura , especially with the way BJP Central leadership and Tripura State Observer Sunil Deodhar are attacking this Manik Sarkar led CPI-M govt in as many ways as they can. Now, after the joining of Team Sudip there may be a chaotic atmosphere and disbelief among BJP leadership because it is learnt that BJP state unit did not want Team Sudip in its team and actually Ram Madhav and HimantaBiswa Sharma jointly forced Tripura leadership to accept the decision .

       With this new twist in state politics following questions have started to rise :-

  1. Is BJP playing a big gamble with Team Sudip ?
  2. Will current BJP leaders accept them gladly ?
  3. Will BJP's plan for 2018 be spoilt by this new entry ?
  4. Is Team Sudip's joining a shrewd plan of Manik Sarkar &Co ?
  5. Will the 24years' history be again repeated paving way for Manik Sarkar's victory once more ?
  6. Will this decision by BJP Central leadership be suicidal ?

               At this stageit is obvious that the soil of Tripura seems to be very fertile for BJP and if the Central leadership can work efficiently the 2018 Assembly Poll may mark the end of long years of continuous and dominating rule of CPI-M
