India's Poorest Chief MInister: Mr Manik Sarkar Of many honest persons I am writing today about Mr Manik Sarkar, Chief Minister, Tripura. He has been elected consecutively for fourth terms as Chief Minister. First some facts about this great person. 1. He is the poorest but Purest Chief Minister of India. 2. He has been elected as chief minister consecutively for fourth term 3. He doesn’t own a home; 4. His bank balance is Rs. 6500/- 5. He donates all his salary to CPI (M), and party gives him sustenance allowance of Rs 5000/- month. 6. His wife never uses official vehicle and can very easily be seenon Rickshaw in Agartala. 7. Even his worst opponents admit that Manik Sarkar is an impeccably honest man, certainly a rare variety among politicians today. Now, compare these with other chief ministers or politicians, who have assets worth crores of rupees! Apart from honesty, Mr Manik Sarkar has been impetuous for the development of the state which includes better connectivityand development of IT sector in state
