In the latest, Pradyot Bikram Manikya Deb Barma’s Tipra Motha has decided to join the BJP-led government in Tripura.
Tipra Motha chief Pradyot Debbarma, a scion of the Tripura princely family, in July, said he will continue to serve the party as a warrior.
This comes after Debbarma announced he was stepping down as chairman of the party because there is no provision for it in the newly adopted party constitution.
‘I would not give up the demand of ‘Greater Tipraland’, said Tipra Motha Chief Pradyot Debbarma.
On Tuesday, Debbarma made the statement, a day after the tripartite agreement was signed between his party, and the Centre and the Tripura government in the presence of Union Home Minister Amit Shah to bring a lasting solution to the problems of the state’s indigenous people.
“We will not give up on the demand of Greater Tipraland even as it may take time to achieve. The BJP never abandoned the demand for the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, and eventually, it achieved it after several years. Tipra Motha too will not give up the demand of Greater Tipraland,” he said.
Debbarma was speaking to the press in the backdrop of a review meeting of his party that he chaired following the signing of the agreement.
