BJP, allies to contest TTAADC village committee polls together: Tripura CM
Tripura CM Manik Saha said the BJP, IPFT and TIPRA Motha will jointly contest TTAADC village committee polls on September 28.
Tripura chief minister Manik Saha announced that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Indigenous People’s Front of Tripura (IPFT), and TIPRA Motha will jointly contest the upcoming Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC) village committee elections. The election, set to take place on September 28, involves 4,597 seats across 587 village committees.
Seat-sharing among the alliance partners has yet to be finalized. The tripartite agreement signed between the Centre, Tripura government, and TIPRA Motha in 2024 aims to address various issues related to tribal rights, including history, land, political rights, economic development, culture, identity, language, and more. The election marks the resumption of the five-year term of the elected Village Committees, which had been suspended due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
