AGARTALA, Feb 27 (TIWN): Although the government is asked to place the Yusuf commission report on February 29 but uncertainty looms large as there is no assurance regarding placing the report so far.

Talking to TIWN correspondent on Thursday, senior advocate Kalayani Roy said that HC has asked government to place the report by February 29 but so far no assurance has come from the public prosecutor regarding placing the report on February 29.

Government demanded four weeks of time for placing the report but court has extended it to 6 weeks and has set the deadline till February 29 covering a total duration of six weeks, added Roy.

Advocate Roy  further said that,  HC has set the deadline to submit the much awaited Yusuf commission report in 6 weeks and if the report is not published in the given deadline she will file a contempt of court for not disobeying the orders of the HC.

Tripura High Court (HC) given the last date to publish the Yusuf commission report on the then state health minister Bimal Sinha murder case by February 29 but question arises will the state government submit the report or it will once again get delayed by few more months.

The report of the Yusuf commission was not made public by the state government yet today even after the passage of 15 years from the day the commission had submitted the report before the state home department. Sinha and his younger brother Bidyut Sinha were gunned down by the militants of the outlawed National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT) on March 31, 1998.

The Yusuf commission being constituted by the state Left front government under the pressure of the opposition party had submitted the report on Bimal Sinha murder case during the year 2000, but the government had so far failed to publish the report.

Tripura High Court prepares to hear the Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed by a state social activist Kalyani Roy also an advocate over government’s failure towards publishing the Yusuf Commission report on the then state health minister Bimal Sinha murder case. The report of the Yusuf commission was not made public by the state government though he was killed by the extremists on March 31, 1998. Sinha and his younger brother Bidyut Sinha were gunned down by the militants of the outlawed National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT).
