AGARTALA, Nov 7 (TIWN): The State Election Commission has failed to organize a free and fair poll environment in Tripura in this Municipal Election. Statewide massive violence is going on and the opposition parties are being forced to withdraw their nominations. In a few areas, out of massive harassment, attacks, candidates of the opposition were bound to give us nomination but even property damage like incident’s evidence, Police did not take any action. The Election Commission also has sallotapped its mouth. Just after Forward Bloc candidate Soma Ghosh had withdrawn her nomination after she became ill out of attacks and harassment by ruling BJP, AMC, 48 No Ward Left Front candidate's house was attacked by BJP miscreants.

Across the state, similar attacks are being done by the BJP.

Heavy violence started in Tripura since the poll nomination submission process was started. Opposition candidates are undergoing murder threats in various places. Under BJP such an incident is not new though when already 30% seats were won without contest taking help of violence.

The State Election Commission’s puppet role has paralyzed the poll environment.

In Belonia Ward No-5 CPI-M candidate Bhola Das’s home was attacked in a barbaric manner. Bhola Das has taken shelter in his relative’s home. In the same ward TMC candidate Dolon Das’s father has been kidnapped allegedly by BJP. CPI-M State Secretary Jitendra Choudhury has written a letter to the Election Commission seeking a reply from him.
