Chaudhury further accused several government departments of corruption, and mismanagement—saying the whole administration is basically running under what he called a “regime of loot” type thing. He also mentioned that the purpose behind the ‘Jail Bharo’ movement was to shoot out a clear political signal, and force the government to finally deal with urgent matters that hit ordinary citizens. Meanwhile, Left Front leaders claimed the protest happened at nearly 20 places across Tripura at the same time. They said this was meant to widen the opposition’s reach beyond Agartala, and push stronger grassroots mobilization too. Party leaders added that the agitation would keep going, if the government doesn’t respond to their demands properly. As of now , the BJP government has not put out any full detailed response to the allegations raised during the protest. Still, the statewide stir can be seen as a renewed attempt by the Left Front to take on the ruling party ahead of the coming political contests in the state.
