He said that Tripra Motha and all tribal parties have played a constructive role in this direction.











The Union Home Minister said that be it Bru-Reang agreement or border agreement, it all started with Tripura and today again it is an agreement for Tripura. 


He said that in 2019 NLFT (SD) agreement, in 2020 Bru and Bodo agreements, in 2021 Karbi-Anglong agreement, in 2022 Tribal agreement and Assam-Meghalaya border agreement, in 2023 Assam-Arunachal Pradesh border agreement, Dimasa agreement UNLF and then ULFA agreement have taken place. 


He said that Modi government has worked to end struggle of people by talking to them through 11 different agreements related to borders, identity, language and culture. Shri Shah said that with today’s agreement, Tripura has moved forward to become a dispute-free Tripura. 


"Now you do not have to struggle for your rights and the Government of India will come forward to develop a system which will protect rights of all," Shah stated. 






"Today’s historic agreement between the TIPRA Motha Party, Govt. of India and Govt. of Tripura is a giant leap in the right direction to empower our people with their due rights. Words aren’t enough to express our gratitude towards #Bubagra @PradyotManikya for all the hardwork that he has put in to make this a reality," tweeted Tipra Motha, the influential political in Tripura. 


Pradyot Manikya, chief of Tipra Motha, also said: "Today's pact was only a beginning and not an end....".


Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha tweeted:


"With this agreement, we have respected the history and accepted the realities of the present day. All the people of Tripura will work together to make Tripura Ek Tripura, Shreshtha Tripura. I thank Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi  Ji & Hon’ble Union Minister for @HMOIndia  Shri  @AmitShah  Ji  on this historic day for being always with the people of Tripura."
