Agartala: Tripura Congress chief Ashish Kumar Saha on Thursday slammed the BJP-led state government for its alleged lack of commitment to child protection calling for immediate action to safeguard the welfare of children.
During an event commemorating the birth anniversary of Jawaharlal Nehru, Saha highlighted the country’s first Prime Minister’s legacy and contributions towards the welfare of children.
Saha emphasised that Nehru envisioned a nation that safeguarded its children and promoted peace and progress.
He, however, expressed concern over the current state of children’s safety, citing the alleged surge in cases of abuse, including rape and assault in Tripura and the country.
“The Pradesh Congress has consistently raised these issues with the state government, but to date, no effective action has been taken,” he lamented.
Saha urged the government to take concrete steps to address critical issues, including child labour, crime prevention, healthcare and educational support for children.
“The administration has the power to bring about changes, yet the current government appears indifferent towards the safety and welfare of children,” Saha added, calling for stronger measures to protect young lives across the state.
