TMC four-member team bound for Nagaland cancels visit: After 14 civilians were killed in Nagaland in an Army ambush, Trinamul supremo Mamata Banerjee expressed her heartfelt condolences for the bereaved families and also demanded a thorough probe into the incident so that the victims’ families get justice.
Sushmita Deb, Rajya Sabha MP alleged that the Union Home Minister has failed to maintain law and order and security of the country, including in Assam and Nagaland. He has only become the Union Home minister to use Central agencies like CBI and ED on different political parties to secure the BJP party,
she alleged.
The Trinamul delegation that was to visit Nagaland, has now postponed their visit. TMC MP Dr Santanu Sen said, ” Just as we were about to board the flight to Jorhat, we received intimation that Nagaland government has issued prohibitory order and section 144 is clamped on the entire state. We received intimation from our party high command that we will not be allowed to go out of Jorhat airport and our movement will also be restricted.”
Mr Prasun Banerjee MP said,” We were going to meet the bereaved family members and express our solidarity with the victims’ families. We are not going to Nagaland to create a law and order problem.”
