Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb virtually pulled down the traditional CPI-M bastion in Belonia on Tuesday when thousands joined the saffron party leaving the red flag in a programme which was believed to be the largest ever such rally in last three years.
When Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb entered the venue, there was a mammoth gathering of the people—they virtually changed the political atmosphere in Belonia with the party slogans.
Overwhelmed by the huge response he received in the rally, Deb said it was the outcome of the transparent governance.
He said that there was no allegation of collecting commission or central deprivation in the state now as the government was working with the goal of transforming Tripura into an Atmanirbhar State.
“Instead of wasting time in the name of protests, the state government is taking various steps to ensure income to all. Besides, the benefits of various welfare schemes are being given among the people without judging the political colour,” Deb told the gathering after welcoming the CPI-M voters to BJP.
Highlighting the various pro-people initiatives of the government, Deb said that the state government had already taken several steps for socio-economic growth of the farmers’ and to ensure infrastructure development.
Meanwhile, before joining the rally, the Chief Minister also took part in two other party programmes at Belonia— he opened an Outdoor Gym facility at BKI ground as well as participated in the Karyakarini Meet of BJP Kisan Morcha at Sachin Dev Burman auditorium.
