Agartala: A group of BJP supporters attacked the residence of Tripura’s veteran journalist and vice president of the Assembly of Journalists (AoJ), Samir Dhar, late on Saturday, May 29. This is the third such attack on Dhar’s house since 2018 when the BJP assumed power in the state, and attacks on journalists have since become a regular occurrence.
Stating that Dhar has been threatened several times, the AoJ, in a statement, said, “The miscreants, known as supporters of the ruling BJP party, entered the area on Saturday late night at around 9 pm with sharp weapons and carried out the attacks. They vandalised the boundary walls of Samir Dhar’s residence and also abused him using obscene language and threatened him with dire consequences.”
