AGARTALA, Jan 27 (TIWN): Ratan Lal’s daily memes, abnormal comments raising doubts on Tripura Education Minister’s mental state. Yesterday, 26th January on Republic Day ceremony, Ratan Lal said that 'নভেম্বর ২৬শে জানুয়ারি ২০০৮ ,এই দিনটিতে আমাদের বোম্বেতে হামলা হয়েছিল'- Minister’s abnormal comment of calling 26th January as 26th November, 2008 when Mumbai attacks took place, reminded public Ratan Lal’s earlier abnormal comments ‘India’s 86% infected by AIDs’ disease. Social media users have trolled the Minister for his bizarre comment, confusion with dates saying 26th January is also a day for mourning as the Mumbai terror attack took place in the very day. This is not the first time that the Minister has said so but earlier also due to similar speeches he was trolled in social media. Both the Chief Minister and Ratanlal Nath having record of extra, unnecessary talks led them to tarnish their images by themselves.

The 2008 Mumbai attacks were a series of terrorist attacks that took place in November 2008, when 10 members of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a terrorist organisation based in Pakistan, carried out 12 coordinated shooting and bombing attacks lasting four days across Mumbai.

Nath further talked about constitution, fundamental rights and duties. He said, one constitution, one rule and one leader should be the policy which was said by Jana Sangh’s founder Shyama Prasad Mukharjee, created controversy. He invested Mookerjee’s “ek nishan, ek vidhan, ek pradhan” (one flag, one constitution, one leader) slogan with the far deeper purpose of stamping out the distinctiveness that is the soul of India and forging a single nationwide identity. 

He has called for Ek-Bidhan, Ek-Pradhan, Ek-Sangbidhan. However Constitution is one but so many articles the constitution has to save the multi-identities of Indian diverse culture, Nath was silent about that. His speech was too controversial on Republic Day for a  state like Tripura. In Tripura, such statements never came out earlier.
