A complaint was lodged with the police about the missing party worker, Singhal said.
Superintendent of Police (West) Abhijit Saptarshi said a missing diary was filed but claimed the person was a “habitual drunkard” who often “disappears” for some time.
“He disappeared in a similar way few months back under the influence of alcohol. We have received intelligence inputs that the person said to be missing was seen hanging around in Agartala city”, the SP said.
