Addressing media, CPI-M spokesperson Bijan Dhar said, “East Tripura voters are different. We would request voters to go in group while casting votes and all types of rigging should be immediately stopped by complaining in proper places and if then also no action is taken, then reaction of the voters will be equal against the hooligan. Cannon against can, gun against gun because democracy has to be saved”.
Bijan Dhar said, CEO Sriram Taranikanti has accepted that the poll environment was violated, people’s democratic rights were snatched and thus there is huge re-poll chances in the West Tripura.
Bijan Dhar said, “Our target was not to discuss about the poll rigging of West Tripura, but our aim was to ensure people’s right for East Tripura constituency”.
Tripura East constituency’s election to be held on April 18 in the second phase and the first phase election which was held on April 11 is under ECD scanner for re-polling due to massive rigging.
