| IPFTs present movement is the by-product | AGARTALA, July 20 (TIWN): Traditionally CPI-M has been trying to label IPFT and other indigenous outfits as anti-Bengali and always been successful in gaining the confidence of Bengalees and ultimately turning their faith into votes . But the fact is that CPI-M itself has led the foundation of anti-Bengalee sentiment among the tribals and that began with Dasharath Debbarma led Bangal Kheda Movement and this anti-Bengali politics of CPI-M still continues . In fact the current Chief Minister Manik Sarkar led the very foundation of 'demand for separate state ' in the name of Inner Line Permit demand . Even before the 1993 Assembly Poll CPI-M party promised to introduce Inner Line Permit but after coming to power the party did not act in this direction. Manik Sarkar , who was the CPI-M state Secretary in the year 1992 , was the pioneer of CPI-M's divide and rule policy . Tripurainfoway.com recently exposed CPI-Ms Anti-Bengali feeling with documentary evidences . The documents are nothing but the written memorandum submitted by CPI-M and signed by Manik Sarkar on 26th February 1992 during a All Party Meeting called by the then Chief Minister Samir Ranjan Barman . | 20-Jul-2017 |

N.C.Debbarma’s IPFT faction hardly represents 5% of Tripura Tribals, neither represents majority so multiple Tribal leaders blasted IPFT for immature politics demanding separate State before 6 months of Assembly election. Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, Junior Home Minister Kiren Rijiju refused to meet these few separatists even though they camped at Delhi since a week under the supervision of few CPI-M and Congress leaders. However after IPFT blockade ending, BJP State President Biplan Deb in a Press meet on Thrusday hinted that Centre will meet IPFT in coming days so that CPI-M's evil game with Tribal-Bengali divisive politics bites dust. | 20-Jul-2017 |

| Manik Sarkar’s B team Congress â | AGARTALA, July 20 (TIWN): Manik Sarkar’s negative politics via pet dogs continue as wednesday’s Strike not only backed by CPI-M but as per sources, CPI-M directly funded Birjit Sinha, Gopal Roy’s lameduck Congress strike across Tripura. Otherwise less than 100 supporters and few leaders how state Congress' Party’s 12 hours strike passed away peacefully with no untoward incidents ??? Political analysts of the state say that this became possible only due to undeclared but full cooperation from the ruling CPI-M party and actually this has turned out to be a govt sponsored strike, a rare instance in CPI-M ruled Tripura . Over the years Congress had called so many strikes on various issues during Manik Sarkar's regime but only in few cases opposition Congress could gain success due to strong opposition by the ruling CPI-M and by the CPI-M led govt. At that time Congress used to enjoy strong support base of 45% - 48% voters . Miraculously now , with less than 4% -5% support base , Congress succeeded to call two strikes in less than five months duration and both with massive success . This is a very interesting and rare phenomena in Tripura especially when CPI-M is in power . | 19-Jul-2017 |
| CPI-M blessed IPFT failed to get nod to | AGARTALA, July 20 (TIWN): Tripura's 37 lakhs population are fortunate that IPFT honcho N.C.Debbarma abstained from parading his naked body with hanging dick like his supporters. Few missionary influenced Christian Tribal boys naked blockade made whole IPFT's 'Tipraland' agitation turned not only immature but seemed like N.C.Debbarma following CPI-M's blueprint. Union Home Ministry's refusal to meet IPFT separatists imply that Centre does not count IPFT as representative of Tribals. Ruling CPI-M, Opposition BJP, INPT, Congress parties got a large Tribal population which accounts over 90% of State's Tribal Population. IPFT not a sole representative of Tribals, rather majority of Tribals oppose IPFT so CPI-M is trying to create communal unrest by using IPFT so that Bengali-Tribal violence can help CPI-M to win 2018 election.Chief Minister Manik Sarkar well aware of IPFT’s poor organizational strength as breakaway faction led by Narendra Chandra Debbarma lacks strength to even gather one thousand supporters on NH-8. So, other than some drug infested misguided youths dancing naked on NH-8 Baramura what else scaring Manik to allow TSR battalions to disperse this idiotic mob ? | 19-Jul-2017 |
