On Jana Sanjog Abhiyan, PCC President Birajit Sinha today at Agartala stated, Tripura Pradesh Congress is contemplating to organize a 24-hour general strike during mid April in support of 5-point demand and Party will organize state wide ‘Jana Sanjog Abhiyan’ from March 23 in support of 5-point demand list.
Focusing on 5-point demand list, he said, the State has failed in providing Health care services, rural and hilly areas are experiencing scarcity of drinking water, implementation of MNREGA has been stalled and CBI inquiry has not been initiated relating to Chit Fund scam. He also said, Pradesh Congress is also planning to hold a 24 hour general strike during mid April. However, no dates have been finalized yet, he commented.
From activities of political parties, it is obvious that forthcoming 2018 Assembly election will become an interesting battle of nerves and strategies.
