AGARTALA, Aug 25 (TIWN): After passage of 48 hours, CM Manik Sarkar finally broke his silence on Thursday and stated that the entire situation is pre-planned to flare up communal violence in Tripura by IPFT alongwith TMC and BJP to destabilize harmony. Talking to media at Civil Secretariat on Thursday, CM Manik Sarkar stated that it was a planned move by IPFT and other political parties for flaring up communal riot kind of clashes . Now question arises if it was a pre planned program by IPFT why did the State Administration allow the unruly IPFT to stage rally at Agartala on last Tuesday ? However sensing the intensity of the situation, the west district administration has imposed prohibitory orders under Section-144 all over Agartala town to prevent illegal gathering of people. Violent clashes caused severe panic among the common people of Agartala after IPFT rally. However, CM Manik Sarkar has finally ordered for namesake investigation into the case within next one month. Overall doubt prevailing in state if this whole violence was pre-planned handiwork of CPI-M Party.

Almost two days have passed from the incident, Agartala city slowly returning back to normalcy.

CM Manik Sarkar has further urged to maintain peace and tranquillity in the state and asked the citizens not to pay ear to the rumours.

The regional IPFT party, known for the unruly behaviour of his cadres, staged another ugly show at Agartala on Tuesday. The show in the form of procession moved through the streets of Agartala raising slogans for separate state called ‘Twipra land’, shouting abuses at Chief Minister Manik Sarkar and vociferously opposing any interaction between tribals and non-tribal’s.

The unruly cadres of IPFT had also assaulted peaceful citizens who needed emergency crossing of the roads. The whole ugly show left a better taste in the minds of the people of Agartala. The unruly act of IPFT cadres has generated resentment among the peace loving people of Agartala city.

IPFT’s rally has created unrest across the state especially at Agartala city when clash erupted at the three most crowded place of Agartala at Aitorma, Cornnel Chowmuhani, Press club and many other located place of the city.

Reportedly, in some places some of the youths in uncontrolled situation were harassing people, drinking liquor from soda bottles, scared shopkeepers complained before the police. But police played different roles in same day at two different places. Police were hyper active when NSUI staged dharna in front of Manik Dey’s home. At the same time with violent IPFT youths, police were just mute spectators as instructed by CPI-M honchos to keep tribal vote bank intact.

CPI-M cadres and IPFT are equally responsible for this communal flare -up causing massive unrest across various parts of State.
