"If They're So Strong": Tripura Chief Minister Jabs Congress Amid Voting

Chief Minister Manik Saha said there was no anti-incumbency in Tripura

As Tripura's 60 assembly seats voted in a multi-cornered fight, incumbent Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha said he was confident of a win and urged voters to turn out in large numbers.

"I am confident we will win the elections. We will get more seats than we did in 2018," he told NDTV this morning.

The BJP had won 36 seats in Tripura in the 2018 elections. The party appointed Biplab Deb as Chief Minister, but replaced him with Dr Saha last year.

The Chief Minister said there was no anti-incumbency in Tripura. "Our road to victory has become simple," he said.
