AGARTALA, Aug 6 (TIWN): BJP exposed CPI-M's lies after Minister Tapan Chakraborty said that SSA's movement is fully politically biased. BJP in counterattack depicted about CPI-M's help in various employee led strikes, demonstrations since 1975, whenever CPI-M was the opposition-party. In a press conference state BJP leaders said, "Why CPI-M is calling BJP for politicizing SSA-move ? Didn't CPI-M as the opposition stand against Congress to support employees and said CPI-M is with them ?". Citing example from 1975, the BJP leader said, "In support on 2nd March, 1975 CPI-M gave a strong support to the strike called at TGEA Office. On that day CPI-M said whatever strength they have we would give to get teachers' rights. We are ready to give our lives, our blood for you".However, Nripen Chakraborty told the protesters, "Not only you but everybody is victim of Congress rule. To get you the win against deprivation, our party will be with you".CPI leader Jitendralal Das said, "To succeed over the strike we are ready to give every kinds of helps to you".
On 14th March, 1975 Manik Sarkar said, "Comrades you go forward. 17 lakhs people are behind you....Tripura's 30 thousand teaching staffs continuous strikes will create Tripura history".
However, according to the BJP leaders' view, the support of CPI-M was to draw the votebanks of employees for them; now in the cycle of time when the same support is given by BJP to the SSA teachers, why Minister blaming SSA teachers as BJP's supporters ?
Tapan Chakraborty sitting at Secretariat in the evening said, "We had requested SSA teachers to withdraw the hunger strike, but after today's incident, now it has been cleared that the teachers are politically motivated".
However, BJP's visit and promising to SSA teachers on their regularization, just expectedly fell heavy upon CPI-M Govt that has expressed with the anger of Tapan Chakraborty during the press conference.
