Trinamool Congress All India General Secy Abhishek Banerjee is to visit Tripura on August 2 to protest the house custody of the 23-member I-PAC delegation that was there to assess the potential expansion of the party's base in the north-eastern state.

He will visit the Tripureswari temple at noon and hold a press conference at 3.30 p.m. in Hotel Polo Towers, Agartala.

The 23-member I-PAC team led by Prashant Kishore was put under house arrest for more than 48 hours until July 27.

Given the Bangla-speaking population in Tripura, West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee has set her sights on the north-eastern state. The I-PAC row has pitted TMC against the ruling BJP government in the state for the due 2023 assembly elections.
