Earlier, urging for peace in Manipur, He wrote on the social media, "Appeal for peace in Manipur! Violence amongst our own brothers and sisters will get us nowhere! All matters can be resolved when we sit across the table and discuss! Tripura has a long association with Manipur and the violence there deeply pains me!".
The TMP fought in the Assembly Election 2023 alone in Tripura with a demand for constitutional solutions of the indigenous people’s rights and problems. Earlier, the party advocated for ‘Greater Tipra Land’ which comprised of lands in Tripura, Assam, Mizoram and even Bangladesh.
TMP’s call for ‘Greater Tipra land’ evoked massive response among the indigenous people and riding on the support, the TMP captured Tripura Tribal Area Autonomous District Council (TTAADC).
In the State Assembly Polls, the TMP bagged 13 seats out of total 60 seats and emerged as the second largest party in the State.
