The Communist Party of India (Marxist) alleged that a convoy carrying Tripura’s former chief minister was attacked, a charge the ruling BJP has denied.
The Communist Party of India (Marxist) publicly accused an assault on a convoy that was transporting the former chief minister of Tripura. The party said the vehicle was targeted, though it did not provide details about the location or the perpetrators.
The Bharatiya Janata Party, which currently governs both the state and the centre, rejected the claim, stating that no such incident occurred and that the allegation was baseless. Party spokespersons emphasized that there is no evidence to support the accusation.
Both sides have called for clarification, but no further information has been released by police or local authorities as of now. The incident remains a point of contention between the CPM and the BJP ahead of upcoming political activities in the state.
