BJP crushes Left in Tripura, workers indulge in massive celebrations

Claiming that Christian missionaries are a threat to the unity and integrity of the country, BJP MP Bharat Singh has accused the Congress party of working on their directives.

The party workers’ celebrations gave a surge in sale of saffron gulaal in Agartala.

BJP leader Ram Madhav said that the party would come to power in Tripura. "We are leading in those seats also which we did not expect," he said.

BJP is on course of toppling the Left, which has been in power for the last 25 years under the leadership of CM Manik Sarkar.

A large number of female party workers assembled in front of the BJP party office in Agartala to celebrate their resounding victory.

BJP party workers were seen celebrating with colours even before the final results were announced.

BJP’s majority in a state where the party did not even open their accounts in 2013, has prompted widespread celebrations in the state capital, Agartala.
