Agartala, 23 Sept 2022: Before the Tripura assembly elections, a big blow for BJP. Now BJP MLA Burba Mohan Tripura has resigned. The resignation of the Tiprasa MLA has created a sensation in the Lotus group. According to special sources, the MLA will join Tipra motha.
Tipra motha chief Bubagra Pradyot Manikya was present during the resignation. Tipra motha has one of the roles in the upcoming assembly elections. Tipra motha has already won the autonomous council polls. Their impact on tribal areas is severe. The BJP is under pressure because of the resignation of another MLA of the party.
Next year is the Assembly elections in Tripura. But before the upcoming elections, the BJP and IPFT alliance is facing one big blow in tribal-dominated areas. Hangso Kumar, the leader of the opposition in the autonomous district council, joined Tipra motha, the ruling party of Tripura’s only tribal council, a month ago. Along with Hangso Kumar Tripura, about 6,500 workers and supporters of 3,000 families also joined this party. Royal family member Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma handed over the party flag to him.
In August last year, a special staff meeting was held at Tulsibati School in Agartala in the presence of 5 reformist BJP MLAs to save the state BJP. Five to seven leaders and workers from all assemblies were invited in the meeting. In the meeting, an attempt was made to know the opinion of the field level workers. Not a single speaker said that the party and the government are doing well in Tripura. 18 people spoke. Everyone talks about radical changes in party and government management.
Otherwise, they assume that BJP workers may join Tipra motha and Trinamool. Five MLAs Sudeep Roy Burman, Ashish Saha, Ashish Das, Diba Chandra Rangkhawl and Burba Mohan Tripura and former BJP president Ranjoy Deb also spoke in the meeting. It is said that around 2000 people of BJP were present there.
The meeting called with the skeptics brought together the disgruntled BJP to decide the next course of action. In the meeting, the then BJP MLA Sudip Roy Barman said that the party workers are disappointed. This meeting has been called to listen to them. The points raised in the meeting will be conveyed to the High Command. However, Sudip left the BJP and joined the Congress. He won the by-election and is now a Congress MLA. Burba Mohan Tripura is going to leave the team after this.
