The announcement came amid the party’s decision to adopt its first constitution and pledge to go to party workers in all five regions of the Tribal Council to hold similar public meetings and discuss the party’s structure with grassroots workers.
Speaking at the farewell session of the two-day public meeting at Kumulung, the headquarters of Tripura ADC, Pradyot said. Thans (Unity in Kokburok) will not be achieved by big speeches but by standing together in times of need, even when challenges come from all sides. Political observers feel that his comments were an indirect reference to some party leaders who are believed to be against Pradyut’s stance of not joining the BJP in state government.
Thansa will not be spoken of by speeches alone. The party system must be explained to the people. Our party constitution has been drawn up today. The hierarchical structure must be put into practice through a bottom-up approach, rather than a top-down approach. We organize committees in the blocs and districts with the positions of president, vice president, general secretary and organizational secretary. We also need to prepare for the ADC Village Committee elections.
in Sharp Stuff At the conference, BJP and other regional parties, Pradyot said, “Regional parties like NCP, RJD, Shiv Sena and Samajwadi party put their families on politics. There are dynastic politics in Congress and BJP. My aunt Vasundhara Raje was the president Rajasthan ministers and now my cousin Jyotiraditya Scindia is present (in the central government). Shivraj Singh Chauhan’s son is into politics. There are bloodline policies in Congress, too.”
Citing his Mota history, Pradiot said he did not promote his family, but the combined tribes instead. He also expressed his deep frustration with Motha’s leaders and supporters and said that mistakes had been made. “The biggest mistake is that tribes think of themselves first and then society later. Nobody thinks of society, they think of themselves. First they think of themselves, then of their villages, their titles (community) and after they get their danda (stick) they think of tribes My education was in Shillong. When any tribe came to meet me in Shillong, I did not ask who was from Deparma, Rayang or Jamatya. Now, I realize that the problem is our thinking.”
He said that the party is not important and said that he fought for the security and future of the tribes even when he was the Congress President in Tripura. “I resigned from the NRC and CAA and showed my sincerity to the tribes. But I see people leave parties when they don’t get an MDC ticket or when they don’t become ministers. I made a mistake. This problem is not for Motha. It’s from the tribes as a whole,” Pradiot said. .
He said that Chief Motha and MLA Bijoy Kumar Hrangkhawl would lead the party and said the party would continue as per the provisions of the newly adopted constitution.
Pradyot made his stance clear as he trained his guns in the BJP, saying that he would continue to reject any compromise with the BJP’s “divisive tactics” and would continue his fight for the interest of the tribes over language, script, religion, autonomy and other rights. problems.
A veteran political observer said: “It remains to be seen whether Pradiot will be pressured to retain his position and, in any case, remain a mentor. I feel he will continue to wield the power he has now. This decision is essentially a reversal of brinksmanship. It remains to be seen.” Whether Pradyut will stand by his decision. If he steps down, things will become complicated. Some MLAs are keen to join the government and take over as ministers. Motha will eventually go with the BJP in the Parliament elections.”
The comments also gained some legitimacy in Pradiot’s own words as he said he needed to move away from the party leadership because he wanted to focus on broader issues, but asserted that his authority would prevail in settling any unresolved issues within the party.
The current head of the former Manyakya royal dynasty of Tripura, Pradyut Kishore Manikya Deparma, entered politics by joining the Youth Congress and became the state chief of the party in 2019 – a post he held for nine months before resigning due to the NRC revision and Citizenship Amendment Act, Which he said discriminated against the tribes. A graduate of History Department from Shillong, Pradiot was always keen to give history lessons at his party meetings.
He floated TIPRA Motha with Claim the separate nation of Greater Tiberland for the tribes The state the party claimed has been left behind under various political systems since the amalgamation of the state with the Union of India in 1949. However, the party’s core demand, It underwent a series of changes in subsequent years And ahead of this year’s assembly elections, it had already restated its position, saying Greater Tiberialand would mean an independent state within the state of Tripura as per India’s constitution, albeit with a host of steps such as direct funding from the center said to enable tribal development.
