The Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) strongly condemned the murderous attacks unleashed by the RSS and BJP in Tripura in the name of ‘child lifters’.

Referring to the 11-year-old student who was brutally murdered in West Tripura district on June 26 last, the CPI-M in a press release, alleged that a minister of the BJP-led State Government charged that both the kidneys of this child were removed for illegal human organ trade which spread panic and fear.

The state Director General of Police, however, quoting from the post-mortem report stated that both the kidneys were found intact in the body.

The release further said that on June 28, three Muslim hawkers doing business in Tripura for the last ten years were attacked by branding them as ‘child lifters’.

One of them was killed and the others were hospitalized with serious injuries.

According to the release, the CPI-M) is being targeted under the spurious pretext of instigating violence.

CPI-M activists’ houses and offices in that area have been attacked and the reporter of the CPI-M daily is now hospitalized with serious injuries.

The CPI-M release said that four innocent lives have been lost so far.

The party also criticized that the BJP-led State Government had blocked the internet and social media for 48 hours in order to suppress the information of the violent attacks reaching people.

The Left party apprehended that more such attacks will be intensified and it is the constitutional responsibility of the State Government to uphold law and order by protecting innocent people and punishing the culprits but on the contrary, the State Government is patronizing such private armies.

The polit bureau of the CPI(M) strongly condemned this and called upon its party units across the country to organize protest activities and expose the diabolic designs of RSS and BJP.
