Tripura: BJP’s Kalyani Roy calls Independent candidates in panchayat polls ‘enemies of society’

Senior BJP leader Kalyani Roy on Thursday called the Independent candidates fighting the panchayat elections in Tripura enemies of the society.

The comment made by Roy, the government chief whip in the assembly, was apparently aimed at CPI(M) and Congress members who are contesting the polls as Independent candidates.

“Voters are enthusiastic over the elections. They are coming and voting spontaneously. There has been no chaos in the Teliamura subdivision. We are receiving overwhelming support from the people,” she said.
