Ram Madhav said, “There is no law and order in Tripura at all; it is a jungle raj going on. It was the fate of Bengal under CPI-M and that is the fate we see, experienced in Tripura every day. Time has come for all the people in Tripura to come together to put an end to this jungle raj.”

He criticised the media fraternity at the national capital for not organizing any protest against the killing of Tripura journalist.

Ram Madhav rued, “We are really sorry that a committed journalist, a reporter who was doing his duty was brutally murdered and that shows how much sense of fear prevails in this state of Tripura.”
