Agartala, Apr 3 (FD) The Congress Tripura branch will hold a rally here on April 16 to protest Rahul Gandhi's removal from the Lok Sabha, according to state party head Birajit Sinha.

“Thousands of Congress workers will assemble here on April 16 to join in a protest rally”, he said.

On April 20 and 30, protests will also take place in Kailashahar, Unakoti district, and Udaipur, Gomati district, according to Sinha.

The Tripura Pradesh Congress president expressed concern over post-poll violence which is still going on in the northeastern state even a month after the announcement of the election results.

 "It appears that the BJP has not learned anything from the people's decision... In Tripura's 2023 Assembly elections, more than 61% of voters desired change. They formed the government despite receiving only 39% of the ballots... ", he said.

Sinha also demanded disciplinary action against BJP legislator Yadav Lal Nath for allegedly watching a pornographic film on his phone in the Assembly on March 24.

"The act of the ruling party MLA has damaged the Assembly’s sanctity. The speaker should take sue motto cognizance and disciplinary action against the legislator for his misdeed", he said. FD JK
