AGARTALA, March 9 (TIWN): Behind the “Nesha Mukt Tripura” banner of Chief Minister Biplab Deb, smugglers and dealers have continued their illegal drug-smuggling empire and in last 2 yeats various BJP activists, leaders were found red-handed while handling smuggling runs. Today, in a shocking report it was informed that at least 18,000 boxes of brown sugar have been seized from a hostel in Agartala by NCC Police. Police could not arrest anyone yet but the owner has been identified as Babul Das. Police started search for him.The hostel has been identified as Vivekananda Abasan in Agartala.The worth of the seized items will cross crores, said a source. Smugglers are found with various new methods continuing smuggling of illegal contraband items like recently, 2 smugglers found smuggling drugs in BSF attire.In each gap of few days, various BJP activists, close aids are being exposed in this smuggling racket.

 Recently, in a shocking outcome Santana Chakma, Social Welfare Minister’s body guard Dilip Chakma and one TSR jawan of her escort Sanjeev Chakma were caught by State Police while smuggling contraband items like Heroine at a large quantity. At the same time, national report said that drug consumption rate of Tripura further has increased.

On the other side, Govt is eager to sell licenses for liquor shops, which has created massive controversy in state.

Reacting over it, Tripura Congress senior leader Gopal Roy said, “Biplab Deb is a parachute Chief Minister who flied suddenly from Delhi but what have he done in the name of Nesha Mukt Tripura is seen across. 196 liquor shops are given licenses and shops are seen kept open till late night”.

Thus it can be said that BJP’s Nesha Mukt Tripura rattled, exposed with Tripura Social Welfare Minister Santana Chakma’s body guards caught while smuggling Heroin In the name of “Nesha Mukt Tripura” how BJP backed figures are neck-deep with smuggling related crimes have once again exposed.

When Chief Minister Biplab Deb is preaching Nesha-Mukti abhiyaan, his party cadres, specially to leaders are engaged in narcotic business.

Earlier West Tripura MP Pratima Bhowmik’s name was accused by many top BJP figures whereas her brother  Biswajit Bhowmik is known as Boxonagar smuggler Don whose name came in media report recently after a police officer was killed in state.

Recently, Boxonagar’s BJP leader Uttam Barman’s home was raided by police and Rs. 10 lakhs of ganja were recovered.But, surprisingly, Uttam Barman was not arrested by police yet. His wife Anjana Barman is also member of Boxonagar block SC-Sub Committee.Moreover, in Kalamchara PS, no NDPS case was filed by police due to a mysterious reason. One more accused person’s name has come out in media report as Drug smuggler named Debabrata Bhattacharjee, of Sepahijala District. This name is not new but more people’s names are alleged along with MP Pratima Bhowmik and her smuggler brother Biswajit Bhowmik who allegedly directly or indirectly killed Police officer Durga Chandra Hrangkhawal.

In one line, it can be said that Drug empire of BJP has turned the state a narcotic den, under the Nesha-Mukt-Abhiyan of CM Biplab Deb. 

Women are equally in narcotic smuggling competition with the men. Local newspapers have accused BJP woman leader Soma's son Tanay as drug-smuggler.

Very recently, two drug smugglers were arrested by East Agartala PS, whereas local people of Nathpara in Chandrapur reportedly said that total 3 persons were handed-over to police but police were trying to save Soma's son Tanay. Allegedly police under huge pressure and not taking action against Tanay. Moreover, it took 3 hours for police to reach East Agartala PS from Nathpara and in the middle she took her son from the vehicle. The two drug smugglers who were arrested by East Agartala Police after getting information from local sources with around 250 yaba tablets were detained from Chandrapur, Agartala. Police informed that the local people first caught them and kept them detained, handed-over to police. The two drug smugglers are Priyotosh Biwas, Suman Sarkar.  But local newspaper reports and also local people alleged they handed-over 3 persons but only two were shown arrested. 

Even after brutal murder of colleague Durga Chandra Hrangkhawl, Tripura Police has miserably failed to arrest the main kingpin in the murder case, opposition to media report although hinted chief involvement of ruling party leaders in that case.Infact ex-DGP A K Sukla himself mentioned about the brutality of the murderer and promised no one will be pardoned. Congress earlier has demanded CBI investigation in Police officer Durga Chandra Hrankhawl murder case.Police said that 3 persons were arrested in this connection Ishak Miah and two noted drug smugglers, Idrish Miah of Sonamura and Abu Khayer of Jatrapur and the 3rd name could not be revealed but the prime accused in the brutal murder of the police officer are still at large.
