Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha has launched a scathing attack on the CPI(M), alleging that the party had dug holes in the ground to bury BJP leaders and workers alive before the Assembly elections held in February this year.
The plot of the party was foiled as the BJP won the polls for the second time in a row, Mr. Saha claimed at a function in Bazar Colony in Khowai district. Rejecting the allegation as baseless, the CPI(M) said the saffron party won the elections because of division of votes among the non-BJP parties.
"We had inputs that many graves were dug for selective killing of BJP leaders and work by burying them alive as they were confident of winning the February 2023 elections. But it was foiled by the people as the BJP won the battle of the ballots", Mr. Saha said on December 12.
