The Tripura Congress has observed a 'Black Day' across the state, demanding the resignation of the Chief Election Commissioner amid allegations of electoral irregularities.
Recently, the Tripura Congress organized a statewide black day protest, urging the resignation of the Chief Election Commissioner over concerns about the fairness of upcoming elections. The party’s leadership called for a meeting with the Election Commission to address alleged irregularities. The black day, a symbolic gesture used by opposition groups, involved silent marches and participants wearing black attire to signal dissent. The demand comes as Tripura prepares for its next general elections, with the party seeking greater transparency in the electoral process.
