BJP’s ‘fear of people’ claim as Tripura village committee poll delayed, says Jitendra Chaudhury

The scheduled village committee elections in Tripura were postponed, prompting criticism from opposition leaders. Senior CPI(M) figure Jitendra Chaudhury said the delay is a clear indication that the ruling BJP is apprehensive about facing voters in the state. He added that such tactics undermine democratic processes and erode public confidence. The postponement has been noted by local media, and the Election Commission has yet to provide a detailed explanation for the rescheduling. Observers note that the incident adds to the growing political tension ahead of upcoming state-level polls.
