Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha on Sunday warned that the Special Task Force (STF), the latest security wing added to the State police, would act tough against “political hooligans and extortionists”. He admitted that a section of “misguided party (BJP) workers” have resorted to unethical activities and warned them of tough action .
“The government and the party [BJP] have been repeatedly appealing to and warning those who are committing criminal and unlawful activities. The STF which has been formed under the Crime Branch will also act against them,” Dr. Saha said in his speech at a voluntary blood donation programme here.
The Chief Minister said that the authorities had been repeatedly receiving complaints since the Assembly election held in February last. “The State government and the party made repeated appeals to the ‘misguided supporters’ to eschew unlawful means.”
