Agartala Feb 01: BJP karyakartas on late Tuesday night staged protest by blocking the road on Raj Nagar Bridge under 30- Bagma assembly constituency of Udaipur in Gomati district, alleging destruction of party’s campaign materials by opposition.

With the assembly elections on card, similar incidents of attack over party candidates, vandalism, destruction of campaign materials or party’s booth offices are reported almost every day from different parts of the state.

However, question arises on security measures where the election commission claims of ‘adequate security’ arrangements across the poll-bound state.

According to the details of the incident, miscreants uprooted the BJP’s campaign materials including flags and festoon in Rajnagar area late on Tuesday night.

The BJP leaders accused CPIM -Congress backed miscreants to be responsible behind such incident.

Protesting against the same, BJP karyakartas and supporters staged road blockade demanding immediate action against the miscreants.

BJP workers further said that despite informing the Udaipur sub-divisional police officer about the incident, the sub-divisional police officer did not take any proper steps to trace and arrest the culprits.

However, later the blockade was lifted after receiving specific assurances from the police officials.
