Lok Sabha MP Jitendra Chaudhury has alleged that the BJP‑led administration in Tripura is fostering a climate of mafia rule and commission dominance, raising concerns about governance and law enforcement in the northeastern state.
Lok Sabha Member of Parliament Jitendra Chaudhury has publicly accused the BJP‑led government of Tripura of creating an environment of ‘mafia raj’ and ‘commission raj’. The MP, representing the state in the national parliament, said that criminal elements appear to have influence over state affairs and that key commissions are dominated by political appointees.
Chaudhury’s remarks come as Tripura has been governed by the Bharatiya Janata Party since 2018. He argues that the current administration’s policies and appointments have fostered a climate where illegal networks and bureaucratic commissions operate with little accountability.
The allegations have drawn attention to the state’s governance structure, prompting observers to question the effectiveness of law enforcement and the independence of state institutions in Tripura.
While the BJP government has not yet issued a formal response, the statements by Chaudhury underscore ongoing concerns about political influence and corruption in the northeastern state.
