Congress leaders, however, alleged that a group of miscreants backed by BJP attacked the residence of Shahjahan Islam at Shantipara here.

BJP’s state minority morcha President and former Minister Billal Mia filed a complaint against Shahjahan Islam at West Agartala police station for his statement against the Chief Minister on social media.

BJP claimed that Khairul Islam and Najrul Miah assaulted the BJP activists when they went to their house to protest Shahjahan Islam’s derogatory comments against CM, state government and party leaders.

Billal Mia claimed that Shahjahan Islam made insulting comments on the Chief Minister and state government on social media.

“Based on this, we filed a complaint demanding his (Shahjahan Islam’s) arrest. On one hand, there has been an attempt to malign the state government and on the other hand, there is conspiracy to create unrest among communities – all are found on his Facebook post,” Billal Miah told the media.

BJP also organised a protest rally on Monday against the Congress youth leader’s offensive comments.

The Youth Congress leader’s comments sparked controversy and several netizens including BJP activists were seen raising demands of action against him.

Tripura state Congress president Asish Kumar Saha alleged that over 100 BJP and Yuva Morcha supporters entered the house of Sahajan Islam at Shantipara late on Sunday night and ransacked the property.

His parents were beaten up and his wife was physically assaulted, Saha told the media. Congress Working Committee member and former Minister Sudip Roy Barman, after visiting Sahajan Islam’s house, also strongly protested the attack on the youth Congress leader’s house.

Former Minister and former state Congress president Birajit Sinha also condemned the incident and stated that this culture of attacking houses should be stopped.

In his statement to the police, Shahjahan Islam said that he was attacked by “goons” as soon as he returned home from the state Congress office on Sunday night.

He also alleged that the goons, who were purportedly brandishing firearms, wanted to murder him but failed since he had locked himself inside a room and later assaulted his parents and wife.

enewstime desk adds: Shahjahan Islam made facebook post in which he used highly objectionable and derogatory comments against Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha who is an eminent dentist and a Maxillofacial surgeon. Shahjahan also made ugly comments on Dentistry referring to Dr Saha.
