The Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday targeted the communist party in Tripura and pitched for ‘Ganatantra’ from ‘Gun-Trantra’ – terror. “The Left front government has ruined this state as the communist cadres have created a terror like situation by turning it into a 'Gun tantra.”
Mr. Modi was addressing a public rally attended by over thousands of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) supporters at Agartala Vivekananda ground.
“The communist party had a tendency to threaten the voters of this state under terror situation and come to power in every election held earlier,” alleging Mr. Modi said, “This time People of this state shall bid them such a farewell that they cannot return, so that they could not run the businesses of extortion and atrocities again.”
He said, “Once we form the government here, we will conduct a high-level probe into all the political killings and killings of journalists.”
Mr. Modi alleged, “The Left front government led by Manik Sarkar has looted crores of money from the centre in the name of development.” Adding to this he alleged, “Out of every Rs 100 spent in Tripura, the Centre is giving Rs 80. Still, there is no development in Tripura.”
Mr. Modi in his political speech at Agartala today questioned, “At Delhi the communist party takes out rallies for employment and gives slogans for salaries, but the labourers in Tripura are largely deprived from getting minimum wages.”
However, the prime minister has come to Tripura for the second time in wake of the crucial assembly elections for 60 constituencies to vow the voters of the state in favour the BJP. PM Modi has arrived here at the state and moved to Santirbazar at the southern part of the state and later arrived at Agartala Vivekananda ground today evening to address a massive public gathering.
