3 BJP leaders expelled in Tripura

Agartala, May 20 (UNI) The ruling BJP in Tripura has expelled three party leaders of Dhalai district for their alleged involvement in illegal activities and criminal antecedents, the party said in a media release on Friday.
An hour ahead of the action, state party president and Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha while addressing BJP cadres advised them to stop all violent activities.
Saha’s advice assumes significance, as Tripura hass registered a few thousand incidents of political violence, attacks on opposition, destruction of offices of opposition parties, attacks on media and government critics during erstwhile Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb’s rule over the past 50 months, which triggered the demand for his ouster both within and outside the party.
