Biplab & Pradyot’s meeting sparks political buzz in Tripura
In a surprise move that has sent shockwaves through the political corridors of Tripura, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Biplab Kumar Deb met with the chief of Tipra Motha, Pradyot Debbarma, at the historic Ujjayanta Palace in Agartala recently. The closed-door discussion has triggered widespread speculation, with many interpreting it as a sign of possible backdoor politics amidst ongoing tensions over the Tiprasa Accord.
The meeting, which was reportedly a birthday visit, has raised eyebrows due to the current political climate in Tripura. Just days prior to the meeting, a Tipra Motha MLA had threatened to withdraw support from the BJP-led government in the state, citing alleged non-implementation of the Tiprasa Accord. The accord, signed in 2021, aimed to address the demands of the indigenous Tripura people, including greater autonomy and representation.
Pradyot Debbarma, the chief of Tipra Motha, is a prominent leader of the indigenous community and has been vocal about the need for greater recognition and empowerment of the Tripura people. His party has been a significant player in the state’s politics, and its support is crucial for the BJP-led government to maintain its majority.
The meeting between Biplab Deb and Pradyot Debbarma has sparked widespread speculation about the possible implications for the Tiprasa Accord and the future of the BJP-led government in Tripura. While the BJP leadership has downplayed the meeting, saying it was a simple birthday visit, many political observers believe that the real purpose of the meeting may have been to discuss the future of the Tiprasa Accord and the BJP’s relationship with Tipra Motha.
“We are not going to comment on the meeting as it was a private visit,” said a senior BJP leader, who wished to remain anonymous. “But we can assure you that our commitment to the Tiprasa Accord remains unchanged. We will continue to work towards implementing the accord and addressing the concerns of the indigenous people of Tripura.”

The accord was signed in 2021 and aimed to address the demands of the indigenous Tripura people, including greater autonomy and representation.

“It’s been over two years since the Tiprasa Accord was signed, and we are yet to see any significant progress,” said a representative of the Tripura Indigenous Peoples’ Forum. “The government needs to take concrete steps to implement the accord and address the concerns of the indigenous people of Tripura.”
