Narayan Kar on behalf of the Left Front Committee released their election manifesto through a press conference on Friday. The manifesto is as follows:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The BJP-IPFT coalition government is running misrule in Tripura. Fascist terror is perpetrated with the goal of establishing a one-party dictatorship. Destroyed democracy. Civil liberties have been taken away. Forcibly taking away the right to vote freely. The election has turned into a farce. Freedom of the press is being trampled upon. Destroying the ideology of secularism. It is creating psychological pressure against minorities in freedom of religion and social activities. Tribal Areas are draining Autonomous Zilla Parishads. Depriving of economic rights and privileges of Scheduled Tribes, OBCs and Minorities. They are playing the game of drowning Tripura in the sea of \u200b\u200baddiction. Crimes against mothers and sisters are on the rise and are taking a gruesome look. Abolished the rule of law and established the rule of the jungle. The country’s constitution has been suspended.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
BJP has turned its election promises in 2018 into farce and lies. The burden of taxes and revenue is constantly being placed on the shoulders of the people. Commodity price hikes have become an everyday affair. Businesses including cottage-small-medium industries are affected by recession. Agriculture and farmers are in crisis. People’s work-earning-purchasing power has come down to the bottom. Half-starvation-starvation-starvation death \u2013 child selling is back. People are suffering from insecurity of supply of purified drinking water, irrigation water and electricity in places. Road communication is disrupted. Lack of teachers in schools and colleges. In hospital doctor-nurse-health workers. Lack of medicines, patient food and beds.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Government recruitment is almost over. All recruitment is on contract basis. Vacancies are not being filled and thousands of vacancies are being created. Government action including workers. Denying his trade union rights and fair financial dues. In many cases wages have been reduced. Prot\u00e9g\u00e9s of the ruling party are running a free reign of extortion by force everywhere. The government is mired in corruption. Government financial discipline and financial systems have collapsed.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The BJP-IPFT coalition government has brought Tripura to the brink of collapse. The people of Tripura want an end to this miserable and painful situation. People want democracy-peace-harmony-secular atmosphere and rule of law to return to the state. People want to ensure the system for people’s survival including work-earning. People definitely want the country’s constitution to function effectively in Tripura. To this end I humbly request the Electorate of Tripura to win the Left Front candidates to defeat the BJP and ensure the implementation of the following minimum programme.<\/div>\n
