Trinamool Congress leader Majibur Islam Mazumdar, who was grievously injured in an attack last year and was being treated at SSKM Hospital here, died on Wednesday.
The news prompted Trinamool supporters to take to the streets of Agartala in the afternoon. They agitated in front of Raj Bhavan and

was arrested following a scuffle.
On August 28, the foundation day of Trinamool Chhatra Parishad, Mazumdar was allegedly beaten up by BJP supporters. “He received severe head injuries and fractured his right hand. He was being treated at SSKM for four months, but succumbed to his injuries this morning,” said Trinamool’s Rajya Sabha MP Santanu Sen.

said Mazumdar’s death showed the BJP government in Tripura was a threat to democracy. “The death of a party leader is painful. I heard he suffered a cardiac arrest. The TMC will try its best to win the assembly polls in Tripura to reinstate democracy there,” Roy added.
Party leader Rajib Banerjee said they had sought permission from police to allow them to submit a memorandum to Tripura governor Satyadeo Narain Arya over deteriorating law and order, and rising unemployment in the state. The governor, however, did not meet the Trinamool delegation.
