Is Manik's one sided activities compara | It is he whose 'Honesty (?) and White Image (?)' was the main agendas of CPI(M) during the 2013 Assembly Election and practically during the last 10 years. Recently this ' Honesty and White Image' has been brutally exposed in almost all local media and a section of national media like Times of India. It is because of his recent activities, - silence over the ongoing scams - that is really fanning the fire. How shameful it is for a Chief Minister to use Govt officials to issue orders to buy his book ' Atit Diner Smriti Katha' from RMSA fund and that too for such a book that is not at all related with the welfare of students! And after this when the reports of scams in different departments and the looting of Centrally Sponsored funds are now the daily 'HEADLINES', he instead of taking any step against corrupt officials and party leaders , used his power against those who actually found out such scams. | 27-Oct-2014 |

Congress in self-destruct mode | Perhaps the awareness about the irredeemable nature of the Congress's political fortune persuaded Prithviraj Chavan to let the cat out of the bag. By confessing, however, that he was powerless as the Maharashtra chief minister to probe the allegations of corruption against influential party members like Vilasrao Deshmukh, Sushil Kumar Shinde and Ashok Chavan, as well as a ministerial colleague, Ajit Pawar, the outgoing chief minister has drawn attention to the primary cause which is behind his party's decline. | 18-Oct-2014 |

Around the Youth Hostels of Great Britai | It was the year of early sixty. I was on leave from my Job as the Registrar of Surgery in a Northern English hospital near The City of Manchester, where I had caught a lethal infection of viral jaundice & went into hepatic coma from where I was salvaged. As the infection was caught while on duty, the Hospital Board granted me, after discharge from the hospital, paid leave with full salary for 3 months with offer to go back to my post on 1st july. One of my colleagues had died and the second survived but became a hepatic cripple. I found accommodation in an apartment in London University flats, a very affordable, comfortable room with good facilities. | 14-Oct-2014 |
You have sat too long for any good you h | All are quiet in the reign of Shri Manik Sarkar, the Rt. Honorable Chief Minister of Tripura. The bureaucrats are obeying his every word as gospel of truth, police are wetting their pants at every dictum of Him. | 07-Oct-2014 |
India should hang its head in shame | India loves the Northeast when it gets something out of it. They adore Mary Kom because she gave them yet another gold at this Asiad at Incheon. But look at how bravely Sarita Devi fought only to be denied by referees who seem to have taken a decision before the bout was over to award the tie to the Korean. But what were Indian officials doing ! Why could they not lodge a protest at such a preposterous decision ! | 01-Oct-2014 |

Modi’s Drive East | From Mamata Banerji in West Bengal to Manik Sarkar in tiny Tripura, not to speak of Assam’s hatrick chief minister Tarun Gogoi, a host of regional chieftains are under fire in the East . This could make the BJP’s task of penetrating the region much easier than what many would imagine. The saffrons don’t have a a strong organization in most of the Eastern and northeastern states but the fact that they are only party who people have not seen in power in these states . So they can well swing the electorate their way by playing on the simple argument – ‘you have seen all the rest and see how miserable they are, so please give us a chance’. | 01-Oct-2014 |
