Agartala, Sep 23 (UNI) The CPI-M has accused the ruling BJP of forcefully bringing opposition supporters in the Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb’s rally in Kakrabon of Udaipur in Gomati district yesterday and pressurising them to hold the BJP flag.
The allegations came soon after Chief Minister announced the joining of 2891 people from 720 families in a party rally. The CPI-M state committee member and senior leader Ratan Bhowmik alleged that BJP cadres had been threatening the people, especially opposition supporters, for the last 4-5 days to remain present in the Chief Minister’s rally and hold the BJP flag in Kakrabon.
Prior to the party rally, Chief Minister had attended the inauguration of the Synthetic Football Turf at Chandrapur in Udaipur, BJP cadres have done the same thing there too. The programme was organised by the Sports and Youth Affairs department, but the party had issued directions to the residents of surrounding areas that at least two persons from each family must attend the programme, Bhowmik alleged.
