Agartala: During the February 16 Assembly elections in Tripura, which resulted in 21 arrests, a total of 16 post-poll violent events were reported, according to the state's Chief Election Officer (CEO), Gitte Kirankumar Dinkarrao.

Dinkarrao claimed that many of the 400 companies of the Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) sent by the Union Home Ministry were sent to the two states where elections for the assembly are taking place on February 27: Nagaland and Meghalaya.

"A substantial number of CAPF is still in different parts of Tripura who would remain in the state till the counting of votes on March 2 to prevent any kind of post poll violence," the CEO told the media.

Dinkarrao said that in view of the post-poll violence, peace meetings were held on Saturday in all the 23 sub-divisions.

Urging people to maintain peace and harmony, the CEO said that if anyone takes the law in his hand, the authority would take strict action against them.

On the day of voting on February 16, only six incidents of violence were reported from different districts of the state, the official said.
