AGARTALA | July 7, 2026: Cutting across political lines to address a severe humanitarian crisis, the Leader of the Opposition (LoO) in the Tripura Legislative Assembly, Shri Jitendra Chaudhury, today led a high-power CPI(M) delegation to the residence of young Manashree Chowdhury, who is currently battling a rare and life-threatening medical disorder. The leaders visited her family home situated at Hapania Choumuhani Para on Tuesday afternoon to express deep solidarity and offer immediate supportive assistance.

- Shri Ratan Das, CPI(M) West District Committee Secretary.
- Shri Samar Chakraborty, Dukli Sub-divisional Committee Secretary.
- Shri Nabarun Deb, DYFI State Committee Secretary.
- Shri Srijan Deb, CPI(M) West District Committee Member.

- Shri Ashish Chakraborty, Hapania Local Committee Secretary.
The leaders sat extensively with Manashree’s mother and local relatives, reviewing her medical files, treatment tracking logs, and discussing the immediate diagnostic requirements needed before her referral to a premier medical institute outside the state.
”What this young child and her parents are enduring is incredibly heartbreaking. Dealing with a rare, debilitating illness puts an immense mental and financial strain on any family. We have visited them today not as political representatives, but as fellow citizens to stand firmly by them in this hour of extreme distress. We have extended immediate financial assistance to the best of our current capabilities to ensure her ongoing medication is not disrupted. Furthermore, we will officially write to the health ministry and senior medical administrators to ensure that she receives top-tier institutional backing and fast-tracked medical clearances without any administrative bottlenecks,” Leader of the Opposition Jitendra Chaudhury stated at Hapania.
