Agartala, Aug 18, 2011 : Buoyed by the success in West Bengal, Trinamul Congress is all set to squeeze into the traditionally bi-polar politics here in Tripura.

Trinamul Congress which is expected to announce its full fledged Pradesh committee is hopeful of repeating the West Bengal experience here unseating the Left Front from the government.

As first step in this direction, the TMC is ready to kick off its campaign with a series of public rallies.

“Pradesh Trinamul Congress will hold a rally at Sakuntala road on August 20 next to assess the political prospect of the party here”, state convener Manik Deb told reporters here on Wednesday.

Deb said, “Mukul Roy, Sultan Ahmed, Kakali Ghosh Dastidar and several other party MPs will address the gathering to launch a movement like West Bengal to oust the CPM from Tripura”.

“The decision to hold a rally was taken following the series of meetings between party supremo Mamata Banerjee and state steering committee”, added Deb, who returned to the state with about 50 functionaries from Kolkata weeks ago.

“We have also requested Mamata Banerjee to visit Tripura and address a rally that would be expectedly as massive one”, Deb claimed.

Deb alleged that congress and CPM are trying to jeopardize the rally as it would pose a threat to both the parties.

On the matter of full-fledged Pradesh Trinamul Congress Committee, Deb said, it did not exist here since last one year.

It will be declared within a month.
