Agartala, Oct 22 (IANS) Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha on Wednesday said some people are still doing politics of division and conspiracy in the style of communists, but trying to mislead the tribal (tribal) community will serve no purpose.
Chief Minister Saha, who is also a senior BJP leader, was speaking while inaugurating the Takajala party office in Sipahijala district. He said that the people of Tripura believe in peace, development and democracy and the present state government will not tolerate the use of muscle power in the state under any circumstances.
“If anyone attacks us, we will give a befitting reply through legal means,” he said.
On this occasion, 690 voters from 200 families, mostly tribals, joined the Bharatiya Janata Party and were welcomed by the Chief Minister.
CM Saha said, “Our predecessors established the BJP through self-sacrifice. While striving to protect the integrity of India, Dr. Syama Prasad Mukherjee died mysteriously in Jammu and Kashmir. The BJP is moving forward with the ideals of Pandit Deen Dayal ji. His body was recovered in Mughalsarai. BJP workers are not afraid of any situation.”
Without naming any party, the Chief Minister said that any party or other party workers can try to stop us or resort to violence, but such things are temporary and will not be successful in the long run.
“The BJP was able to wrest power from the communists by strengthening its organization,” Saha said. He warned that whoever is threatening the BJP is living in a dream.
He said, “We all have the right to do politics, but there should be dignity in politics. We have seen the rule of communists and Congress before. We saw incidents of murder, terrorism, rape and arson during their rule.”
BJP believes in Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas because we have to move forward by taking everyone along. Saha said everyone deserves development and the BJP and its governments are working under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
He further said that the BJP Tribal Morcha (tribal wing) is working for the development of the tribal community, but if anyone thinks that they can hinder that development, they are wrong.
Noting that the house of the local mandal (local branch of the party) president in Takajala was attacked, the Chief Minister claimed that this kind of culture continues time and again, just like that of the communists. He said that the way the Prime Minister has changed the terminology of politics, we also want to change the terminology of Tripura’s politics.
Saha said, “If anyone has something to say, he can say it. We will do whatever is necessary for our safety. We will not harm anyone, but if anyone harms us wrongly, we will seek justice through legal means.” The Chief Minister also said that one of the objectives of the government is to improve the socio-economic condition of the tribal people.
“Earlier, the tribal community was used for vote-bank politics. Many parties misled them and brought them to the streets. After our government came to power, we have given priority to the development of the tribal community,” he said.
BJP state president and Rajya Sabha member Rajib Bhattacharjee, state party general secretary Bipin Debbarma, Tribal Welfare Minister Bikash Debbarma, district president Biplab Chakraborty, Takajla Mandal leader Nirmal Debbarma and other senior party leaders were present in the meeting.
