attacked a CPI(M) local committee office physically assaulting CPI(M)
activists. 
 
CPI(M) Tripura State Committee member and state Secretary of AIDWA, a
sitting member of the Rajya Sabha, who upon hearing this went there was
attacked by the BJP goons seriously injuring her and her security officer.
Later they vandalized the MP's residence and stole cash and other valuables.
 
BJP anti-social elements also attacked a sub-division committee office
assaulting the secretary and security officers and ransacked the office,
damaging vehicles.
 
They also attacked the President of the Congress party in a separate

opposition.  The people of Tripura will not tolerate such anti-democratic
violent activities of BJP.
