The implementation of the 125th amendment may also be getting delayed due to the demands of the Motha.
The Tipra Motha led by party founder Pradyot Debbarma, is engaged in some tough negotiations with the Centre on the Tiprasa Accord implementation.
Sources told Northeast Live that while there is consensus on most issues, the Motha is pushing hard for direct funding to the ADC, land rights for the indigenous populace, an increase in TTAADC seats from the current 28 to 50 and increase in Assembly seats in TTAADC areas from the existing 20 to 27.
As per reliable sources, the implementation of the 125th amendment may also be getting delayed due to the demands of the Motha.
It may be mentioned that the Tipra Motha delegation is camping in Delhi for another crucial round of talks on Tiprasa Accord Implementation. Even in the last round of talks the Tipra Motha had thoroughly discussed the key issues of land rights, language, and seat reservation, among others.
Earlier, Pradyot Kishore Debbarma has said that the series of talks surrounding the implementation of the Tiprasa Accord in letter and spirit will finally conclude by February or March, 2025.
Pradyot, in a social media video post assured that he will continue to fight for the constitutional, land, economic and political rights of the indigenous Tiprasas.
Earlier on December 21, Pradyot Debbarma had met Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Agartala and discussed issues related to the indigenous people of the state.
