    “After the signing of the Tiprasa accord on the 4th of March the first lot of funds have been allocated to the TTAADC . I am thankful that the Hon CM has listened to some of our requirements and taken this decision . To run the TTAADC without development funds is difficult and I also request the centre which has a larger pool of funds to also release some funds to the tribal areas . The floods have created immense damage in our state and both the state government and TTAADC are struggling . The GOI should give a special status to our state and release money for both the ADC and also the Non Adc areas . I am sure all of us irrespective of party and ideology will agree that being a sensitive border state tripura needs special attention from centre,” PradyotDebarma posted on X.
