Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb has been ‘summoned’ by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP President Amit Shah in New Delhi.

This tremendous speculation has come forward following Deb’s controversial statements one after the other, which has triggered widespread criticism.

Of late, the Chief Minister has been in the news for his various controversial remarks—first for coming out with an exclusive disclosure that the Internet existed from the days of the Mahabharata.

Then came the extra-ordinary views from his personal beauty book when he said 1997 Miss World Daina Hayden did not deserve the crown and that only Aishwarya Rai was a true embodiment of Indian beauty.

And prior to his call to set up paan shops and milk cows, Deb had said only civil engineers and not mechanical engineers should opt for civil services examinations.
