Ex-PM Rajiv Gandhi’s statue found vandalised in Tripura

Agartala: A statue of former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi was found vandalised in Tripura’s Unakoti district, a Congress MLA said on Sunday.
Congress legislator Birajit Sinha alleged that BJP-backed goons were behind the vandalisation of the three-foot statue of Gandhi in Kailashahar subdivision’s Govidapur area.
“The statue of ex-prime minister Rajiv Gandhi was found vandalised on Sunday morning. I suspect that the statue was vandalised by a few BJP-backed goons,” Sinha told reporters.
