Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha on Monday strongly condemned the brutal assault on three Border Security Force (BSF) personnel by a group of alleged smugglers in the Ashabari area under Boxanagar, directing authorities to take swift and stringent action against those responsible. The attack, which occurred on Monday morning, triggered tension in the locality as the attackers reportedly attempted to snatch firearms from the injured personnel and vandalised a government vehicle.
In a post on X, Saha described the attack on the security personnel as unacceptable and asserted that such incidents must be dealt with firmly in accordance with the law. The Chief Minister expressed grave concern over the incident, emphasising that violence against security forces warrants unequivocal condemnation. He said, “I strongly condemn the brutal assault on our brave BSF personnel at Ashabari by a group of miscreants. Such acts of violence against our security forces are completely unacceptable and deserve unequivocal condemnation. Any attack on our security personnel is a matter of grave concern and must be dealt with firmly in accordance with the law.”
The Chief Minister stated that the concerned authorities have been directed to ensure that those responsible are brought to justice, underlining that security personnel deserve the utmost respect and protection. “Concerned authorities are directed to take swift and stringent action against those responsible and ensure that justice is delivered. Our security personnel deserve the utmost respect and protection,” the CM added.
The incident has raised serious concerns about the safety of security forces operating in the region, with local tension reported following the assault on the BSF jawans. The attack is seen as a brazen act of aggression against personnel entrusted with guarding the nation’s borders, and the state government’s strong response signals its commitment to ensuring that such acts are met with firm legal action. Authorities are now expected to investigate the incident thoroughly and apprehend the perpetrators at the earliest.
