The TIPRA Motha’s decision to once again renew the agitation assumes a lot of significance since it comes less than a week after Pradyot Kishore Debbarma met Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi.

After his arrival in Agartala, the TIPRA Motha chief had mentioned that creation of a Greater Tipraland topped the agenda of the meeting.

The TIPRA Motha chief after the meeting with the Union Home Minister, said that his party will not become a part of the BJP government in Tripura until and unless the demand for a constitutional solution is fulfilled.

Pradyot Kishore Debbarma and 9 of his party MLAs had met the Union Home Minister in New Delhi. The development followed after Pradyot held a late night meeting with Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha on June 29.

The developments had triggered speculations on whether the Centre would concede the Tipra demand for maximum autonomy and devolution of powers and the possibility of Tipra Motha siding with ruling BJP.
