AGARTALA, May 13 (TIWN): BJP Govt’s arrogance and disrespect of Court’s ruling again exposed on Sunday. Even after promising that there will be no bulldozing before court hearing, in the early morning Congress party office was bulldozed at Agartala Math Chowmuhani. This is the particular office for which the Congress leaders and agitators had blocked National Highway on Friday after a notice was pasted on the office-door. Following the road blockade, the authority had assured the Congress leaders that there will be no bulldozing led the protesters to release the National Highway. This particular bulldozing to led massive protests as on yesterday also Congress leader Gopal Roy meeting the SDM requested not to bulldoze any party office before court permits.

Immediately after the bulldozing action, Birjit Sinha told TIWN via phone, Congress will go in protest against the drive and will also decide whether any legal action against the govt can be taken or not. 

Sinha also mentioned, the Congress Office and the Municipality office at Math Chowmuhani belong to same plot alleging 'selectively Congress Bhawans are bulldozing by the BJP govt". 

On Friday, Tripura Congress activists, leaders led by Congress President Birjit Sinha and Gopal Roy had blocked National Highway at the same spot in Agartala Kamarpukur area in Math Chowmuhani protesting against the bulldozing drive of the BJP led state govt against Congress party offices. 

Earlier also various party offices of Congress which were built over govt lands were bulldozed by the Biplab Deb led BJP State Govt including CPI-M party offices. On May 7 and May 8 various party offices were bulldozed at Motor Stand and at GB area whereas more fresh notices were served and maximum of them were pasted on the door of the Congress Bhawans.

At Kamarpukur also the Govt has pasted a notice for eviction. Reacting over the notices, Congress have blocked the National Highway at the Math Chowmuhani calling the Chief Minister Biplab Deb a 'Barbaric Ruler'.

Congress President Birjit Sinha said, "All party offices on hills have been served with notices of bulldozing. This Kamarpukur located party office has also been noticed to be evicted. But each office including Municipality office also is built over Govt land here. Why only the Congress Bhawan has been targeted ? No meeting was also called for any discussion with us. Is this democracy ?"

Addressing media, Congress leader Gopal Roy said, "Hundreds of houses,shops are built over the govt lands, which are not being evicted. It clearly indicates that intentionally the Congress Bhawans have been targeted".

"It's a fascist govt led by Biplab Deb. They are Barbaric, crossed the Martial Law..........He is a barbaric Chief Minister", Gopal Roy added.

"We will shed our blood but will save our Congress Bhawan. Today we have started and across Tripura we will bring tornado with protests", Gopal Roy said. 

Now, this particular bulldozing likely to lead more protests.
