Amid growing political tension between ruling allies BJP and Tipra M***a Party in Tripura, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma arrived in the state on Thursday evening on a two-day visit.

CM Sarma’s visit is being closely watched in political circles as he is expected to hold crucial meetings with Tripura chief minister Manik Saha and senior leaders of both parties to address the emerging differences.

The strain in relations between BJP and Tipra M***a has gained significance ahead of the upcoming elections to the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council or TTAADC, where both parties are key stakeholders.

Sources said Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma, who is widely regarded as a political troubleshooter for the BJP in the Northeast, is likely to play a mediating role to ensure better coordination between the alliance partners.

Meghalaya chief minister Conrad Sangma said that the state government has actively intervened to address the ongoing issues and unrest at North-Eastern Hill University, or NEHU, instead of remaining silent on the matter.

He informed that several organisations associated with NEHU had approached the state government seeking intervention, following which the government decided to play the role of a facilitator.

The United States is withdrawing some personnel from bases in the Middle East, a US official said on Wednesday, after a senior Iranian official said Tehran had warned neighbours it would hit American bases if Washington strikes.

With Iran's leadership trying to quell the worst domestic unrest the Islamic Republic has ever faced, Tehran is seeking to deter US President Donald Trump's repeated threats to intervene on behalf of anti-government protesters.

The UN Security Council is due to meet on Iran on Thursday at the request of the United States.

A US official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the United States was pulling some personnel from key bases in the region as a precaution given heightened regional tensions.

"All the signals are that a US attack is imminent, but that is also how this administration behaves to keep everyone on their toes. Unpredictability is part of the strategy," a Western military official told Reuters later on Wednesday.

At the White House, however, Trump suggested he was adopting a wait-and-see posture toward the crisis.

Trump told reporters that he has been told that killings in the Iranian government's crackdown on the protests were subsiding and that he believes there is currently no plan for large-scale executions.

In a big setback to the Mamata Banerjee government in West Bengal and the Kolkata Police, the Supreme Court has paused the FIRs registered against officers of the Enforcement Directorate in connection with their searches against the political consultancy I-PAC.

The bench of Justice Prashant Mishra and Justice Vipul Pancholi has also sought replies from the Ministry of Home Affairs, the Department of Personnel & Training, and the Trinamool Congress government in Bengal on the central agency's petition seeking the suspension of Bengal's DGP Rajeev Kumar and Kolkata Police Commissioner Manoj Kumar Verma, among others.

The ruling comes amid a face-off between the Enforcement Directorate and the Mamata Banerjee government after the latter searched premises linked to I-PAC, which handles election campaigns for the Trinamool Congress, in connection with a corruption case.

The Supreme Court said it is of the prima facie view that the central agency's petition raises a serious issue relating to investigation and interference by state agencies.
