Tripura Police Arrest Online Activist for Alleged “Abusive” Criticism of Government
Agartala, October 28, 2025 – The Tripura police have arrested Madhavi Biswas, a local online activist, on charges stemming from complaints about her public criticism of the state government and the Agartala Municipal Corporation (AMC). Biswas, a resident of Pratapgarh in Agartala, was taken into custody on Monday, October 27th, and presented before a court, where police requested a seven-day remand.
The arrest follows a series of complaints, the first of which was filed by AMC Deputy Mayor Manika Das Datta nearly a month ago. Biswas is accused of using online platforms to voice allegations of corruption within the state government and highlighting perceived deficiencies in civic services. She reportedly directed pointed criticism towards the Chief Minister, other government ministers, and high-ranking AMC officials, including the Mayor and Deputy Mayor, during live online appearances.
Recent commentary saw Biswas critize the State government for not arresting real culprits connected with the huge drug shipment seized from two train wagons at the Jirania railway station. Complainants, however, claimed she had a deliberate tendency to make false allegations against the leaders and abuse them in filthy language.
According to the complainants, Biswas’s statements went beyond legitimate criticism and constituted abusive and false accusations. They allege that her actions were politically motivated with the intent to defame the BJP-led state government and its institutions. The investigation is ongoing.
