AGARTALA | June 25, 2026: Launching a direct offensive against the escalating narcotics trade in the state, the Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) Tripura State Committee today submitted a comprehensive deputation to the Superintendent of Police (SP) of West Tripura district. The youth wing demanded immediate accountability, the dismantling of cross-border smuggling networks, and the absolute arrest of kingpins operating under political impunity.
The protest delegation at the SP office was led by DYFI State Secretary Nabarun Deb, alongside senior committee members and youth organizers.
”From Government Vehicles to Post Offices, Narcotics Are Everywhere”
Addressing the press pool outside the West Tripura police headquarters, DYFI State Secretary Nabarun Deb launched a scathing critique of the state’s administrative machinery. He alleged that despite loud public relations campaigns about a drug-free state, the reality on the ground reflects a absolute collapse of institutional surveillance.
Deb pointed out alarming breaches where transit networks, public infrastructure, and even official transport channels have allegedly been compromised by drug syndicates.
”Tripura is rapidly transforming into a completely unregulated hub for narcotics, and the government is maintaining a stance of absolute apathy. Whether you inspect a railway station, a central post office, or look into instances involving government-registered vehicles—contraband and synthetic drugs are leaking through every single channel. Who is authorizing these shipments? Who is protecting the international transit routes? The common youth is being destroyed while the police administration remains a silent spectator. Today, we have given a strict warning to the West Tripura SP: identify the source, reveal the political backers behind these cartels, and enforce maximum legal punishment,” DYFI State Secretary Nabarun Deb asserted.
DYFI Charts Immediate Enforcement Demands
The youth organization presented a time-bound charter of demands to the district police chief, warning of a state-wide mass blockade if enforcement parameters are not visibly upgraded:
- Public Transit Surveillance: Implementing mandatory, round-the-clock sniffing squad checks and digital scanning at the Agartala Railway Station and local postal sorting hubs to intercept parcel-based trafficking.
- Investigating Vehicle Misuse: Establishing strict accountability frameworks and random highway pickets to check transit vehicles, ensuring administrative protocols are not being exploited by peddlers.
- Neutralizing Local Hotspots: Launching immediate, localized crackdowns on notorious drug-dens operating near academic zones and sub-urban pockets of West Tripura.
The Superintendent of Police reportedly assured the DYFI delegation that district intelligence units are actively working on tracking the supply chains and that specialized anti-narcotics drives will be intensified across all identified vulnerable sectors.
