In an apparent show of strength, the TIPRA MOTHA held a massive rally in Agartala on Saturday. Even, Hamro Sikkim Party chief and footballer turned politician Bhaichung Bhutia also expressed his solidarity to the TIPRA MOTHA rally and shared the same stage with TIPRA MOTHA supremo Pradyot Kishore Debbarma.
It was a sea of supporters at the Astabal Ground in Agartala, as Pradyot Kishore Debbarma harped on the issue of Greater Tipraland and safeguard of the rights and privileges of the indigenous people.
Pradyot Debbarma backed the demand for Greater Tipraland is constitutional and affirmed to fight till the end for the cause.
