On Monday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha held a roadshow from 'Ashram Chowmuhani' to 'Chowmuhani Mode' at Banmalipur in Agartala.

Mr Shah exuded confidence in forming the government once again in Tripura saying the BJP will return to power with a more immense majority than in 2018."The double-engine government will return with a bigger majority than before," he said.

The Home Minister said the massive crowd that turned up at his roadshow and public meetings shows the outpouring of people's support for the BJP.

Earlier on Monday, Mr Shah came down heavily on the CPI(M) and the Congress in poll-bound Tripura, saying that both the parties disregarded the interests of the people and the state.

Mr Shah said both parties indulged in scams while in power and no allegation of corruption cannot be levelled against the BJP-led government in Tripura.
