Agartala Nov 04: Days after the Congress’ headquarters here in Agartala, its various other party offices across the state and workers and supporters of the party were attacked by miscreants, a five-member delegation of the Pradesh Congress on Friday placed deputation to the Director General of Police at the Police Headquarters, Agartala.
Talking to the reporters, veteran Congress leader and former MLA Ashish Kumar Saha said, “The series of incidents in past few days where Congress workers and supporters have been brutally assaulted, few are yet undergoing treatment at hospitals, party offices were ransacked and burnt down, shows the level of lawlessness across the state under BJP governance”.
Talking about the incident of political clash between the ruling BJP and Congress in Bishalgarh Asish Saha said, “The Constitution has ceased functioning here and the concept of rule of law has gone to dogs”.
Castigating the anti-people policies of the ruling BJP, Asish Saha taunted the much touted “Sushashan” Campaign proclaimed by the government.
Congress leader Asish Saha further lambasted the role of police adding that, “Corrupt SDPO Rahul Das along with his team fully supported the BJP backed miscreants and allow them to continue the attacks”.
“Instead of arresting the prime accused persons owing allegiance to the ruling party, the SDPO Rahul Das has arrested the Congress activists who were victims in the case”, he added.
The congress delegation asserted that the party won’t step back but will raise voice in protest and build up a mass movement against such atrocities of the ruling BJP.
Congress MLA Sudip Roy Barman, former MLA Asish Kumar Saha, former PCC President Gopal Roy, Congress leader Harekrishna Bhowmik and others remained present in the delegation.
