AGARTALA, June 17 (TIWN): MLA Sudip Roy Barman and dissented MLAs have denied giving any statement before the media though MLA Sudip Roy Barman had come out  red-faced after holding a meeting with BJP National leaders at Krishnanagar Party headquarter. On being asked, MLA Sudip Roy Barman also had denied giving any statement before the media, saying only Dr Manik Saha who is BJP President can say anything.  The meeting was conducted after speculation was made that Bengal Trinamool leaders had contacted some MLAs of the BJP in Tripura. The BJP party which has lost its popularity in Tripura under Biplab Deb is already divided into two factions. Yesterday, BJP national leaders had rushed to Tripura including BJP National General Secretary B.L Santosh but the meeting with BJP MLAs remained unsatisfactory for many MLAs. No statement however came from any of the resented MLAs.Â
When at top-layers turbulence is going on inside the party, thousands of people are quitting the party and maximum are not joining any political party, which has increased the suspense further.

In damage control, Minister Ratan Lal Nath was trolled by the netizens after he said everything is in order and nothing to worry about the rumours. He is known as the pilot of Anti-Sudip Faction along with Biplab Deb and worked silently to terminate Sudip Barman from cabinet in 2019 and that was the beginning of BJP's clash in Tripura because Sudip Barman was always the strongest opposition face in the Left era. Sources say that Sudip Barman's followers are rather happy that the meeting was "unsuccessful" as BJP has no future in this state.
Apart from Biplab Deb's gaffes, Corruption, Joblessness, 10323 teachers' issue, unemployment, unfulfilled Vision Document promises, massive violence, house to house BJP's attacks in night-hours are the chief reasons behind public's resentment against the BJP Govt in Tripura.
