AGARTALA, Oct 21 (TIWN): Nothing is sure and anything is possible in Politics. However, in Tripura everyone is now eyeing for what will be the result of 2018 Assembly Election ! Will the oppositions align together to beat CPI-M ? ‘The downfall of CPI-M is really hard in Tripura independently & without alliance’, it is the report about public views gathered by TIWN. The oppositions are now discussing about mutuality, it was cleared after Sudip Barman held a press meet at Trinamool Bhawan on October 17. Tripura Trinamool Congress led by Sudip Roy Barman in a press meet said that TMC has talked to the other opposition parties for not to submit candidates’ names in this upcoming bi-election. However, Sudip Roy Barman said, if other political parties also compete in that election then CPI-M will not be defeated and the result will be as same as Simna Tamakari.
Sudip Barman himself said that he personally told each of the opposition leaders about this and discussed about how to weaken CPI-M’s vote-banks.
Also in that press meet, which was fully covered by TIWN correspondent it was said that earlier Trinamool didn’t stand in Simna-Tamakari ADC Election, as IPFT urged them not to submit candidates names. However, BJP most probably after much dilemma will declare candidates names within next 1 day, source informed TIWN. People are saying opposition parties are judging their position through this bi-election. BJP also eyeing for tribal vote-banks with regional parties help. In this situation BJP & Trinamool may be a big blow for CPI-M in Tripura.
TIWN also survey on the grass-wood level, where it was found that the working class people are eyeing for Mamata Party and most of them were in Congress earlier & all badly want the fall of left front era.
Now, defeating CPI-M is most important or to stable each party’s political power in long term, it’s to be seen.
