BJP President Amit Shah is on a two-day campaign visit to the northeastern state of Tripura on Sunday ahead of the Assembly elections on February 18. Shah visited Mohanpur, Chawmanu and Teliamura where he held election rallies and a roadshow while travelling from Bamutia to Mohanpur.
Amit Shah accused the ruling CPM government of ignoring the people’s plight and assured the people that BJP would usher in politics of development to the state. He said, “Bring BJP govt in the state and within five years we will make it a model state.” Earlier in January, the BJP national president had accused the Manik Sarkar government in Tripura of “misrule”, alleging that the situation in the state had gone from bad to worse.
All eyes are set on the fight between CPI(M)-led Left Front and the BJP in Tripura, with the Trinamool Congress struggling to make its presence felt in the upcoming Assembly election for 60 constituencies.
