Agartala | Thursday | 20th September, 2018

Summary:

"The mafia met last week in Myanmar and came up with a plan to assassinate the chief minister," BJP legislator Ratan Chakraborty claimed. "The conspiracy was hatched because the chief minister took effective action against drug smuggling," BJP general secretary Rajib Bhattacharjee said. "I don't know of such issues, but the action taken by my government against drug peddlers has made a difference and, therefore, made some people unhappy. "We received an advisory from the MHA two days ago about the chief minister being targeted by drug peddlers," a senior government official said on Wednesday. In response, additional security cover has been provided to Deb and his family, a state home department official said..
