A day ahead of the by-election to the Badharghat Assembly seat, opposition CPI(M) and Congress on Sunday staged road blockades at two different places here alleging that their supporters were attacked by BJP activists in the constituency.
The BJP has denied the CPI(M) and Congress allegations.
BJP spokesperson Nabendu Bhattacharya said no BJP supporter or activists were involved in the incident of attack in Badharghat constituency.
"We are not aware of any attack on CPI-M activists and no activist of BJP is involved in attack, if anything had happened as such," Bhattacharya told reporters.
The Badharghat assembly constituency is located in West Tripura district and the state capital Agartala also falls under it
