Agartala: February 10. Ruling out the possibility of apprehension of a hung assembly, CPIM general secretary Sitaram Yechury on Friday said democratic secular parties were forced to come together following pressures from the people to defeat the undemocratic rule of BJP.
Addressing a press conference this morning at the CPIM state party office in Agartala, Yechury said he has observed the mood of the people of Tripura is shady which is very clear.
“I have been here for the last two days for the campaign. One this is very palpable during the last two days that I have seen is the mood of the people of Tripura is shady which is very clear. It is not much of saying that for this policy I am supporting you or the alliance or secular forces. But it is to restore the rule of law and to restore peace and democracy in the state that is the overwhelming sentiment of the people this is very visible”, he said.
He claimed that people are coming out and informing him about the reign of terror that has been unleashed and about the attack on democracy.
“They are now seeking help from us to end this rule to help them in leading a normal and peaceful life. The people of Tripura want relief from the oppressive rule and they want normal governance. Another factor is that looking at the mood of the people there seems to be a desperate urge to overcome the people’s dissatisfaction against the BJP misrule by big use of money and muscle power”, claimed Yechuri.
Ruling out all possibilities of a hung assembly, Yechury stated, “If there is a mood of change then there are no chances of a hung assembly. According to me, the change in mood is indicating of forming a new government. There will be no hung assembly. Who will win or who will lose, but the main thing is democracy must win and rule of law must prevail”.
