AGARTALA, Aug 22 (TIWN): Who can forget that Tripura CPI-M spokesperson Goutam Das mentioned on May-8, 2017 when he was asked about Triple Talak. CPI-M Spokesperson Goutam Das said, "Today Narendra Modi is showering sympathy for Muslim Women, but he himself gave Triple Talak to his wife within a month of marriage, but never accepted back her in his life". However, it was time that Sitaram Yechury, Goutam Das and Bijan Dhar Yechury demanded a ban on Private army, Go-Raksha. Modi had strictly condemned the triple talak while addressing the nation on 70st independence day. But Tripura Chief Minister Manik Sarkar also has voiced for Muslim Community but his voice was limited with Go-Raksha and like everytime he skipped the most crucial "Triple Talak issue", whereas Go-Raksha if fully studied is never bans over beef-eating.

Thus the ground of argument is when Communists argue with Go-raksha issue then they brings the secularism issue, but again when they silent on Triple Talak the excuse of Islamic rights comes, indeed a strange secularism India has been leading ahead.

BJP President Amit Shah on May-6 at  Gitanjali guest house that Triple Talak is not fit for healthy society and it snatches the constitutional rights of a woman. Shah who visited Tripura for a 2 day long visit talked about various sensitive including Triple Talak. "It hurts the constitutional rights of women in Muslim society but the case is going on at SC which was filed by a woman & Govt gave stand on it. Let's wait for the SC verdict", said Shah to media here. 

However, in this regard Sitaram Yechury, CPI-M General Secretary said, "Modi's campaign against triple talaq is a communal campaign," Yechury questioned Modi's stance on 'triple talaq' while addressing a national seminar on the occasion of 150th year of publication of Karl Marx's book "Das Kapital" in Kochi.

Yechury even though talked in political angel but he signaled that there is no way to talk in support of Triple Talak. But when CPI-M National Secretary said this, here in Tripura CPI-M politburos have directly targeted PM Modi abusing him at his personal level.

Other parties as TMC, Congress are utter silent about the issue except BJP raised voice for women, which created also political blame games.

Voicing against Triple Talak is also for the sake of common constitutional rights across religion when India is claimed as a secular state. But CPI-M on Monday being secular in ideology supported Tripll\e Talak & finally shown that they are ready to attack the Prime Minister of India if necessary to preserve Triple Talak for Muslim vote banks.
