AGARTALA, Sep 3 (TIWN): TIWN sources in BJP, a large section of the party leaders and Karyakartas are now extremely unhappy with the way CM Biplab is running all his activities . Many within the BJP hold the view a new era dictatorship is on its way after 20 years of Manik Sarkar's regime . In despair many of the hardcore leaders and karyakartas have started to keep distance from CM Biplab & his team. A high level BJP leader told TIWN," Making a rift with Sunil Deodhar will be remembered as the biggest mistake of Biplab's political career. Days are coming when he will face tough challenges but in the absence of Deodhar, Biplab won't be able to control such harsh situations . " Majority of the people of Tripura are convinced that BJP's victory in 2018 assembly poll has become possible purely becuase of the man management and strategies of Sunil Deodhar and his ever reliable team of dedicated Bistarak's 24x7 network .

"But soon after the formation of the govt a radical change came in  Biplab and he began to consider Deodhar as a rival to his domination over the party and the govt," said a top level state BJP leader . 

9th March 2018, most glorious oath taking ceremony in the political history of Tripura took place at Assam Rifles Ground of Agartala in presence of PM Modi, Home Minister Rajnath Singh, BJP National President Amit Shah, veteran BJP leaders L K Advani and Murli Manohar Joshi . A 9 members cabinet ministry led by CM Biplab Kumar Deb officially took charge . With huge expectation,State witnessed a much awaited relief from the two and half decades of communist era of murder, rape, corruption, looting of money from the common mass and amassing unexpected wealth by the major section of CPI-M leaders- popularly termed as SARBA HARAAS. With much anticipation people expected that BJP-IPFT govt. will bring transparency , honesty, commitment , dedication with the aim of giving good governance .

But at the end of only six months the people of Tripura are just witnssing indiscipline in every nook and corner- both within the govt and within the party . As Tripurainfoway.com has launched its special drive, many new incidents are being found that can easily lead any one to frustration and hopelessness . 

When Deodhar was promoted to the post of National Secretary and was also given the additional charge of Co-In-charge of AndhraPradesh BJP, a couple of media published news saying that Deodhar is removed from the post of  State In-charge of Tripura . Many in state BJP are with the view that that news was a planned one organized by Biplab himself through two particular media houses closed to Biplab- one electronic and the other a print media from Agartala. This was not at all liked by the common partymen and on their appeal Sunil Deodhar released a video message through social media assuring the people of the state that he will remain as State BJP's In-Charge . 

After his promotion to the National Secretary when Deodhar's arrival in Tripura was fixed , ordinary BJP workers desired to give Deodhar a grand welcome . But TIWN sources in the state BJP revealed that CM Biplab & BJP MahilaMorcha's top leader Pratima Bhowmik made a blue print not to bring out a massive bike rally from the airport.

This was somehow leaked and more than two thousand youths from different parts of the state organized among themselves and went to the airport to welcome Deodhar with a  large number of bikes shouting slogans Bharat Mata Ki Jai ! However, Deodhar was felicitated in the State BJP Headquarter at Krishnanagar though many still feel that it should have been in the Rabindra ShatabarishikiBhawan , considering the contribution of Deodhar at the national level and his position in the party. 

Taking advantage of this rift, Sudip Roy Barman and his team welcomed Sunil Deodhar warmly and sources closed to Deodharsaid,"EvenDeodhar was surprised by the warm gestures from Team Sudip ." At present there are three groups with inthe  BJP party - CM Biplab's group that includes Pratima Bhowmik, then Subal Bhowmik's group and Sudip Roy Barman's group . TIWN sources in Krishnanagar revealed," At any time there may be a major split with in the BJP party as Biplab Deb is practically doing Dadagiri not only within the party but also within the govt . " No minister in the cabinet can take independent decisions about their own ministries  as no file is proceeded without the consent of the CM .

A top level official in the state Secretariat said ,"All the corrupt officials of LF regime are now guiding CM Biplab Kumar Deb and infact he is totally enveloped by the corruprt gang of Manik Sarkar's era. And on their advise CM has brought the most corrupt IAS officer of the country G S G Ayyangar . As advised by the corrupt gang in the Secretariat, Biplab Deb  now directly intervenes in almost all the activities of all ministries" As such no honest official is being posted to any of the key posts. Taking advantage of this the corrupt and dishonest officials are now dominating over the other officials . 

A highly placed sources in the state govt revealed an interesting fact. The sources said,"Recently CM had a hot chat with a minister , who straightway told him -You may be the CM of the state but I am the CM of Agartala and don't try to spy on my department. "

Another interesting thing is that at present there is an inner clash going in between BJP and RSS . Feeling humiliated RSS leaders too are keeping themselves away from CM Biplab . Day by day Sudip Roy Barman group in BJP is re-grouping again . Days are not far away when one may witness political unrest like Tripura witnessed in 1991 . RSS leaders in Tripura are now very much upset with the activities of the BJP-IPFT govt . However, it is learnt that receiving a complaint from Nagpur , Ram Madhav is learnt to  have instructed CM Biplab to revive and strengthen the relationship with RSS before December .  RSS leaders in Tripura have recently sent secret reports to RSS Headquarters at Nagpur stating that in the hilly parts BJP's grip among the people are losing day by day . 

An RSS sources told TIWN,"We will wait upto the end of November and from December onwards , you will surely see some changes . And without Sangh BJP leadership in Tripura won't be able to run the govt properly . If CM doesn't change his style of work , we will have to take another means. But Sangh won't remain silent. We will soon start Samparka Abhiyan in NE states and this abhiyan is goint to set the tune of Lok Sabha poll for BJP."
