AGARTALA, Jan 28 (TIWN): BJP led Central Govt's continuous drive for NE infrastructure is flourishing state’s connectivity it is in power, but the CPI-M MPs, Ministers are fully busy to criticize the Central Govt. With the Assembly Election coming closer, the anti-Centre remarks of the CPI-M leaders are on peak. Addressing the masses at Orient Chowmuhani in CITU’s protest rally, MP Shakar Prasad Dutta called the BJP Govt as Capitalist and a Govt of rich people. On the other hand, SFI organized a rally preaching Anti-RSS, Anti-BJP remarks. However, in earlier elections, CPI-M never bothered much for BJP’s increasing vote banks, but this is the 1st time that the fear about BJP’s increasing power is hovering over CPI-M politburos.

Referring demonetization the MP cried over the agonies of the common people. 

"In demonetization 20 lakh people lost their jobs and this demonetization only remained helpful for the Capitalists. Demonetization failed to fulfill any of the objectives which Modi promises to do; neither Modi Govt is disclosing how far currencies have been deposited. The govt is hiding so that it can tell the pubic a well plotted story”, said Dutta.  It’s worthy to mention here that CPI-M is least bothered about any other opposition party than BJP, which is day by day decreasing CPI-M’s vote banks across state’s constituencies. 

Recently after the Bi-election result was declared in a press meet CPI-M State Secretary Bijan Dhar said, “CPI-M naturally was shocked in Bi-election results. BJP although could not win but it has drastically increased the vote banks in these votes”.

As the reason behind increasing vote banks of CPI-M, Dhar said, “Obviously there were weakness in CPI-M party organizational strength but apart from that via money and other ways BJP is trying to increase the vote banks. BJP’s vote banks may increase more as apart from BJP other organizations are assisting that party in progress”. “The RSS, Bajrang Dal, Banabasi-Kalyan-Samiti are nothing but wings of BJP, which are spreading bad names of CPI-M and with any issue trying to attack on the ruling party”, Dhar said.

“Moreover as the party is in power at Centre its using that power heavily here. Tripura’s farmers are facing heavy losses due to cash-crisis. Instead of selling in the minimum rate of Rs. 1500/-, the farmers are now bound to sell them at 1100, 1200 rupees per quintal. On the other and rubber price has also been down, as the Central Govt is buying rubbers from other countries”, Dhar added.

  However, with the Assembly Election coming closer, the fear of CPI-M is increasing more and more. The emerging cashless society also affected the party funds for CPI-M and as a  result Anti Central moves have kicked off in Tripura led by CPI-M here.
