Tipra Motha to hold rally in city on Mar 12

A regional party of the State, Tipra Motha which is in power at Tripura Tribal Area Autonomous District Council (TTAADC) will hold a public rally in Agartala on March 12 next in support of party’s demand for ‘Greater Tipraland’.

 

TIPRA Motha Chairman Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma on Wednesday made the announcement as well as took a dig at the CPM, Trinamool Congress and BJP for political violence in the State.

 

“Political violence is a culture of Tripura. This culture was not created on one day. Young generation should come forward for ending such culture in the state. Such violence is just maligning the name of the state. It’s a very shameful thing, he said and added political violence is a communist culture which has now adopted by Trinamool Congress and BJP.

 

“Political parties may change but the culture of violence may remain”, he lamented.
