AGARTALA / NEW DELHI, April 5 (TIWN): Biplab Deb led Tripura Govt has continued cheapness to suppress media voice in the state from the very beginning of Govt formation in 2018.
In a surprising move, at least 5 media houses names were added to an FIR just because the media published an opposition leader’s statement.
The 5 media had published news on Congress leader Gopal Roy after he filed FIR against Chief Minister Biplab Deb for spreading FAKE news about Corona-virus outbreak. Whereas only 2 persons were infected by Corona-virus in Manipur, CM said that total 16 persons were infected which created massive panic in the Northeast.
But after that news publication, a person has filed a counter FIR against Gopal Roy and police entered Roy’s home with huge force.
Congress leader Gopal Roy was also locked by Police in his own house without any Court permission after he filed FIR against CM Biplab Deb over COVID-19 fake news delivered by CM himself.
