The Tripura Congress protested, demanding the repeal of the VB-G-RAM-G Act and the restoration of MNREGA. Party leaders claim the new act undermines citizens' rights and imposes financial burdens, while MNREGA guaranteed 100 days of work. They allege the government is dismantling the scheme and disrespecting Mahatma Gandhi's legacy through this legislation, which they describe as a threat to basic rights and employment.
