“Our candidates were beaten up; their house vandalized and despite filing complaints, no action was taken. Police here is acting in a one-sided manner,” reports quoted Sushmita Dev as saying. 

Saayani Ghosh was summoned by the Tripura police based on a complaint filed by BJP. 

Top TMC leader Kunal Ghosh said, “Democracy is being trampled here. Jungle Raj is prevalent under the BJP in Tripura.”
