Tripura: Man held for posting derogatory remarks on religious guru

Agartala: Tripura police on Wednesday arrested a man for posting derogatory remarks against Matua Mahasangha, a sect of folk Hinduism without a ‘chaturvarna’ system practised in West Bengal.

The action came shortly after Union home minister Amit Shah wrote a letter to Tripura chief minister Biplab Kumar Deb informing him about the matter on Tuesday.
