Tripura: Only the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP’s) double engine government can save Tripura from “triple trouble of Congress, CPM and Tipra Motha”, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Sunday, even as he highlighted Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s HIRA (Highways, Internet, Railways, Airways) gift to the state.
The BJP leader also promised free housing for the poor by 2025, at a Vijay Sankalp rally in Chandipur in Tripura.
'Alliance fooling people'
“The CPM, Congress, and Tipra Motha have made an alliance and are fooling people. The Left, which had never valued tribals, now has kept a tribal in the chief ministerial post just to fool people. Only the BJP’s double engine can save Tripura and can lead the way to development,” said Shah.
The statement by Shah was made in the wake of Modi, during election campaigning on Saturday, saying that the BJP had promised HIRA to Tripura and that the BJP government is working hard to make Tripura 'global'.
Shah also said that free two-wheelers will be given to college girls if the party is voted back to power.
“If the Communists and the Congress alliance is voted to power, jungle raj will return in Tripura. Everyone has seen the violence during the CPM and Congress regimes,” he said.
