AGARTALA, Feb 19 (TIWN): Leading National media, 'Times of India' has reported that amid BJP's infighting and Biplab Deb's bizarre remarks, Tripura BJP State Party President, Dr Manik Saha has been summoned to Delhi. On the other side, BJP leader Ajay Jamwal in Tripura after Biplab Deb’s Nepal, Sri Lanka remarks but his visit was not scheduled and unprecedented. He came only and only for party affairs and to take reports from Tripura to Central after Biplab Deb's latest controversial remark which has affected India's foreign ties with Sri Lanka and Nepal. Biplab Deb not only affected foreign ties with neighboring countries but he involved Amit Shah in his speech who is the core of BJP's image and also India's incumbent Home Minister. This incident happened when majority of the BJP MLAs sought a replacement of Biplab Deb in the CM post, who has divided the Govt and the Party due to his poor experience and arrogant style of operating everything.
Nepal has termed Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb's statement "Unfortunate" where he claimed 'Amit Shah wants BJP's rule over Nepal, Sri Lanka'. Opposition Congress has said, Biplab Deb's may result in 'Diplomatic Blunder' as it can ruin foreign relations. However, within 48 hours of Biplab Deb's remark becoming a viral news, both Sri Lanka and Nepal have raised concerns.
Sri Lanka's Election Commission Chairman Nimal Punchihewa put objection to the statement of Biplab Deb saying, "Any Sri Lankan political party or group is permitted to have external links with any party or group overseas. But our electoral laws do not permit overseas political parties to work here". Nepal has called the Statement "Unfortunate". "Ambassador Acharya expressed concern over Biplab Kumar Deb’s statement that Indian home minister had shared “plans to form a government in Nepal", reported 'The Kathmandu Post'.
