Slamming the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in Tripura ahead of the civic polls, Trinamool Congress general secretary Abhishek Banerjee on Monday said there is complete anarchy in the state and people need to choose between the TMC's 'Duare sarkar' model or BJP's 'Duare Gunda' model.Addressing a press conference here, Banerjee said that there is no law and order and alleged TMC workers are under attack by the "hooligans" of the BJP government."There is total anarchy in Tripura. Journalists, police, and lawyers are being attacked. There is no law and order. TMC workers are under attack by the hooligans of the BJP government. They are doing atrocities to women and people. We are fighting for the people of Tripura. We will not leave a single-inch ground in Tripura," he said.Urging people to vote for TMC in the upcoming municipal elections, Banerjee said, "TMC will work towards the development of Agartala. BJP government has pushed the state 50 years back. Chief Minister Biplab Deb said he does not regard the court and laws. The people are not safe and even the police are not safe. This is Tripura's double engine government model. Now people need to decide whether they want 'Duare sarkar (government at your doorstep) model or the 'Duare Gunda (hooligans at your doorstep) model."The TMC MP urged the people not to get scared of BJP 'hooligans' and make them fool by pretending to be a BJP supporter in order to reach polling booths safely."If you are scared to reach to polling booths then I suggest to carry a BJP's lotus flag and chant 'BJP Zindabad' but reaching inside the booth press the button of 'Jodaphool' (TMC symbol). They have made you a fool for a long now it is your time to make BJP fool," he said.BJP and TMC are at loggerheads in Tripura where the latter is attempting to set its foothold challenging the ruling government.A delegation of Trinamool Congress (TMC) MPs on Monday reached the residence of Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi to meet him and discuss the alleged police brutality in Tripura.Earlier today, a total of 16 TMC MPs including Derek O'Brien, Sukhendu Sekhar Roy, Santanu Sen and Mala Roy arrived at the party office in Delhi and held a protest outside the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) over the Tripura police incident.Tensions in Tripura increased after violent incidents in the run-up to the elections to the Agartala Municipal Corporation (AMC) and 12 other municipal bodies slated for November 25.TMC earlier alleged that several people sustained injuries after an attack on the residence of Trinamool Congress Tripura unit's Steering Committee chief Subal Bhowmik in Bhagaban Thakur Chowmuni area of Agartala on Sunday.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
