No beef ban in Tripura: BJP leader Sunil
Mumbai: BJP’s Tripura in-charge Sunil Deodhar on Tuesday clarified that there would not be any beef.
Speaking to the media at the Mumbai Press Club, Depdhar said, “In Tripura, the majority of population is against beef ban. Considering that most of the people in the northeastern states consume beef on a regular basis, the government will not implement the ban. It is a very simple thing that if they do not want it, ban on beef shouldn’t be imposed in the state.”
“The Northeast region, including the state of Tripura mostly consists of Christians and Muslims. In fact, it will be a little difficult for many to digest the fact that many Hindus in this region consume beef. This is the reason why there was no ban on beef consumption,” Deodhar said.

7 held for running fake call centre in South Kolkata
Kolkata (PTI): Seven people were arrested from the Parnashree area in the southern part of the city for allegedly running a fake call centre, a police officer said on Saturday.
Acting on a tip-off, police raided a house on Netaji Subhas Road on Friday night and found the fake call centre operating from the ground floor, he said.
Preliminary investigation revealed that the accused had set up a bogus company using forged documents and posed as employees of an antivirus firm to call citizens in the US, the officer said.
"The callers would gain the trust of victims and then use remote access to take control of their phones or other digital devices. The accused allegedly siphoned off large sums of money, running into millions of dollars, from victims' accounts," he said.
Five laptops, two WiFi routers, six mobile phones and four headsets were seized from the accused, he said, adding that the seven are being questioned to ascertain the full extent of the racket and to identify others involved.
