Agartala > CPI M General Secretary Sitaram Yechuri today appealed to the newly elected BJP-IPFT government in Tripura to immediately stop alleged attacks on opposition supporters.
He also urged the new government to take responsibility of ensuring peace and treatment of those injured in the attacks, along with a compensation package for the affected.
"RSS can pull down statues but they can't pull down an ideology," Yechuri told the press, after visiting the College Square in Belonia of South Tripura district, where a statue of Communist icon Lenin was pulled down by BJP-IPFT goons.
"The cult of violence is part of their (RSS) entire ideology. This country has resisted this in the past and we have overcome. We will do it again. They can't succeed in this type of politics," Yechuri said. He also visited offices of the CPI M and other left organisations vandalised by the BJP-IPFT.
He said the CPI M would raise the issue of reported post-poll violence in the state and in the Parliament. Yechuri also said the CPI M would review in detail the electoral set back in Tripura.
