AGARTALA, Aug 9 (TIWN): In front of a massive crowd in Agartala’s Vivekananda Stadium, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee sounded the bugle of 'CPI-M's end from Tripura in 2018. On the historic day of 9th August Mamata Banerjee slams Manik Sarkar led LF Gov't for its failure in Education and Health sectors. Mamata Banerjee assured the thousands of TMC workers and supporters ," To remove CPI-M from Tripura we will do whatever we need to do. Over the years I have been looking for a team and now we have got it. We will give our best to remove the CPI-M led gov't from Tripura like we did in West Bengal. CPI-M will never come to power in Bengal though one defeated leader( read Surya Kanta Mishra) came here to make scandals." Attacking Manik Sarkar's gov't in Tripura Mamata said ," In Bengal out of the total population of 9.8 crore around 8 crore people are provided rice at ₹2 per kg. Tripura has a population of only 37 lakhs. Why can't Manik Sarkar do this?" Citing example from TMC Gov't in Bengal TMC Supremo said ," In Bengal 40 lakh students from class IX to XII are provided with by-cycles under Sobuj Sathi Scheme ". Mamata threw a sharp attack towards Manik Sarkar when she said ," In Tripura potatoes are sold at ₹30-₹40 a kg . But in Bengal we have never allowed the rate go beyond ₹14 a kg. So many times we initiated rationing system so that the prices of potatoes do not go out out common man's purchasing ability. But with such a high inflation in Tripura how can the people take twice meals a day ?"

Mamata Banerjee said ," The minority girls in Bengal reading in Class VIII, IX, X, XI and are given ₹1000 per month a stipend in Kanyasri Scheme.  And after the attainment of 18 years  ₹25000/- are deposited to their bank accounts for higher studies. " For the revival of local art and culture TMC govt in Bengal has also a significant step. Mamata said ," 60000 rural artists are given ₹1000 honorary amount every month. After 60 years these artists are getting ₹70000 at a time. "

 Mamata said that the education section is reeling in a serious condition in Tripura with lack of qualified teachers. She said that the employees in Tripura are getting very poor salary.  However, Mamata made the sharpest attack about Manik Sarkar's health sector saying ," Since we came to power in 2011 we have opened 41 multi-Super speciality hospitals in Bengal. But in Tripura the medical colleges are suffering due to lack of faculties. "

Mamata urged the people to bring TMC in power in Tripura. And in return she promised," Now you have to go outside Tripura for treatment. But if we come to power people of Tripura will have Super Speciality hospitals and you won't have to go Bengal outside for treatment.  " But Mamata said that if any poor patient comes to Bengal he/she will get free treatment.

Time and again Mamata Banerjee assured the people of Tripura that  2018  will be end of CPI-M in Tripura. She said ," I will come here quite frequently. And  before the assembly poll of  2018 I will come here daily. This time we will not ait idly until we make Tripura a CPI-M free state like Bengal. "

The massive gathering of tribal people in today's rally may have given a clear message to CPI-M that its hold in tribal belt is now crumbling. And in front of such massive crowd Mamata Banerjee too did not lose any opportunity to raise her voice against the CPI-M for having no industries, acute unemployment, poor education system , lack of medical treatment etc.
