In Tripura, the state government has suspended three state government employees including a staff working under the Tripura State Rifles from service. Official sources said the charges of violation of the election model code of conduct (MCC) lodged against the three employees were found authentic after an enquiry and recommendation of the election department.
Officials said of those employees, one Partha Pratim Debroy was a graduate teacher working under the primary education department, while the other, Rasu Choudhury was employed as a class-four staff under the Madhya Shiksha education department.
The third employee is Kishan Debbarma, a staff under the 7th Battalion of Tripura State Rifles (TSR). Earlier in the last week, two state government employees, who had been charged with participating in political party activities, were suspended for violation of MCC.
