Prashant Kishor’s staff surveying prospects for the Trinamool Congress in the State
The Trinamool Congress is sending a high-level party delegation to Tripura after alleged confinement of its survey team at a hotel here. Senior Cabinet Ministers of West Bengal Moloy Ghatak and Bratya Basu, and party’s labour organisation leader Ritabrata Banerjee will make up the team. The police are allegedly not allowing 23 employees of the I-Pac of election strategist Prashant Kishor from going out of their hotel citing COVID-19 linked restrictions. West Tripura SP Manik Das claimed that the police found a large number of people during a routine check at a city hotel and advised them not to move out till their RT-PCR tests were conducted and reports made available. Mr. Das refuted that the I-Pac team was confined and prevented from travelling. He said they were only complying with the restrictions imposed to check spread of coronavirus.More Related News
