Tripura CM Saha Accuses CPI(M) Of Misleading People

Making serious allegations against the Communist Party of India -Marxist (CPI-M), Tripura CM Manik Saha on Monday said that the opposition party is a master in misleading people as it never acknowledges development in the state.

Saha gave a strong response to CPI-M’s criticism of ‘misgovernance’ in the state and center by the BJP.

Taking on CPI-M politburo member Prakash Karat, Saha said that Karat should undergo ‘cataract surgery’ as he was unable to see development in Tripura.

“He (Karat) has cataracts in his eyes. He should undergo cataract surgery. How will they see progress? When he landed at the Agartala airport this time, didn’t he notice the progress of Tripura? We named the airport after Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya Bahadur. During the CPI-M-led Left Front government tenure, they did not respect Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya Bahadur,” he said.

He further said that the government named the airport after Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya Bahadur to honor his contribution to the development of Tripura.

“Did he not see the development of the road on which he hoisted his party (CPI-M) flag? They do not see development, which is why they always make such statements. And they have a mastery in misleading people,” he said.

Notably, addressing a public rally, CPI-M Politburo members Prakash Karat and Manik Sarkar, a former state CM, and CPI-M Tripura state secretary Jitendra Chaudhry vehemently criticized BJP for “misgovernance in Tripura and Center”.

The CPI leader accused the BJP of destroying democracy in the last 11 years of power as they further said that the BJP was running a government favoring millionaires.

On the 24th state conference of CPI-M from January 29 to 31, leaders of CPI_M made the statements.
