Agartala, 9th November 2026 : Tipra Motha founder and former supremo Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma on Monday called upon people to rise above political differences and focus on protecting the rights and interests of future generations, while urging restraint over the land-related issues concerning the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC).
Welcoming the state government’s decision to constitute a committee to examine the land-related matters of the district council, Debbarma said the panel should be given sufficient space to carry out its responsibilities without unnecessary speculation or premature conclusions.
Speaking to reporters in Agartala, he said the committee had been given one month to examine the issues and submit its recommendations. He added that it would be inappropriate to comment on the matter in detail before the report was submitted.
Debbarma said his party would carefully examine the committee’s recommendations before taking a decision on the next course of action. He stressed that the larger interest of the people must guide every decision on the issue.
“Instead of looking back at the past, we must move forward. Protecting the rights of the next generation and safeguarding the interests of the people of Tripura should be our primary objectives. We must also ensure that nobody is put in a difficult situation,” he said.
The Tipra Motha leader also expressed concern over the tendency to remain engaged in political disagreements, observing that such differences could create unnecessary divisions in society. He called for a more constructive approach in addressing issues affecting the state.
Referring to the forthcoming Christmas celebrations and New Year, Debbarma said the occasion should encourage people to move beyond political divisions and controversies and work towards a more positive and harmonious society.
He maintained that the focus should be on the future, particularly the aspirations, welfare and rights of the younger generation, rather than allowing political differences to dominate public discourse.
