Agartala: Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb on Thursday claimed that the crime rate in the state has come down as the BJP-IPFT government has given the police the freedom to work without any political interference.
He said this while addressing the Police Week Parade- 2020 at Manoranjan Debbarma stadium here.
“During the tenure of the previous government run by the Left parties police couldnt work freely as they always had to depend on the instructions of the political parties. They are free now and working hard to control the law and order situation and achieved success. The rate of crime has come down,” Deb said.
With the change of regime many things have changed including the mindset and style of work of police, he said. “Their mindset has changed and also acquired skills. Now they know they have to work hard and submit the charge sheet within the time frame. This is what the development is”, Deb said. (PTI)
