Agartala: Feb 10: The clash between the CPIM and the BJP has not stopped despite the campaigning of candidates under tight security. On Friday, the fairgrounds became heated with the campaigning of the candidates. Seven people from both CPIM and BJP were injured in the incident. Paramilitary forces have been deployed in the area. According to the details of the incident, CPIM candidate Shyamal Chakraborty went out for polling this morning. But at that time, BJP-backed miscreants got hold of the candidate and started giving trippani. At that time there was a conflict between the two sides.
Five CPIM workers and two BJP workers were injured in the incident. Firefighters rushed to the spot after receiving the information. Firefighters rescued the injured and brought them to Sonamura sub-district hospital. But as the condition of some of them is critical, the doctor on duty referred them to GB Hospital. The BJP miscreants ambushed the CPIM workers after they campaigned against the candidate. Some CPIM workers were seriously injured in the incident. On the other hand, the complaint from the BJP side was that after the candidate came to the door-to-door campaign, they were asked where they were for five long years. During the Corona pandemic, they faced various problems including financial shortages. Why didn’t he come forward to help at that time? And as soon as he said this, a miscreant named Zakir Hossain who was with the candidate and his associates attacked. The candidate did not obstruct his workers. Later, the police were informed to get rid of them. Meanwhile, one worker named Abul Hossain was seriously injured. The police are investigating the incident by deploying paramilitary forces in the area.
