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.
The legislator demanded the arrest of those involved.
Sinha also claimed that some miscreants vandalised a CPI(M) party office in Srirampur in the Kailashahar Police Station area soon after the announcement of the Lok Sabha election results.PTI
