“After there was a protest from all corners we felt that no more attacks will take place but since the declaration of the election results till today there have been several organized attacks. This is one of the media in a democracy to freely express and attack on this is shameful. Immediately the government should take measures to stop all these attacks. Steps should be taken against all those involved in all these attacks. We have noticed that CPI-M offices, leaders and cadres are the main targets of these attacks. Former MPs, MLAs and former MLAs beside representative of various elected bodies were also attacked and it all has come in the media,” Sarkar said.

He added, “Along with it we noticed since the Assembly election result, extortion started and in the middle, it stopped but again it has resumed after the declaration of Lok Sabha result. Several groups in the name of the same party are going to the same house demanding money and it is no small amount of hundred or thousand rupees, rather the demands are crossing even Rs five or 10 lakh. Many after selling their belongings right from domestic animals to jewellery have paid the extortion money to stay in their houses.”

Sarkar, also a politburo member said that the chief minister patiently not only read their note regarding the ongoing post-poll violence also, but also gave his views on which sectors he would give immediate importance from the government side to improve the situation.

Sarkar said that the delegation has requested the chief minister to stop all violence in the State that started since March 3, 2018, the result date of the Assembly election where BJP-IPFT came to power dethroning the 25 years Left Front government in Tripura.

According to Sarkar, the chief minister has an added advantage in bringing the situation under control as he is also the home minister as well as the president of the party in power in the State.
