TIPRA Motha to contest Tripura assembly election alone: Pradyot


Ending all speculations ahead of the ensuing general assembly election, the TIPRA Motha chairman Pradyot Manikya Deb Barma on Friday refused to go for alliance with any other political parties in Tripura and announced that his party will alone contest the election.

Pradyot said, “No alliance will be formed with anyone in the upcoming state assembly polls. We had a talk with the centre at Delhi, but nobody has given any written assurance as I sought for constitutional solution to our demand of Greater Tipraland.”

“One thing is clear in my heart that they haven’t given anything in writing. I want to inform all my TIPRA Motha warriors and the entire Tiprasa that there will be no alliance in this election,” he said while sharing a video for his supporters on Twitter.

He said, “I have said it before and I am saying it again that unless we get in writing from the government of India that our demands will be met constitutionally, I will not form any alliance.”

“After 1977, every regional Tiprasa political party has gone to Delhi and has come back with an agreement before the election. But after the election, Tiprasa doesn’t get anything,” he said, adding that in this election TIPRA Motha will contest alone and no alliance will be made for this election.

“Either we’ll win or we’ll lose, but this time we’ll fight for one last time,” Pradyot assured his supporters in the video.
