TIPRA & AJP to form forum for Regional Parties in Northeast

A joint meeting between the Tripura Indigenous Progressive Regional Alliance (TIPRA) and the Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) was held in Guwahati on Tuesday.

Pradyot Bikram Manikya Deb Barma the chairman of the Tipraha Indigenous Progressive Regional Alliance (TIPRA)  has urged the Northeast regional parties to unify before the delimitation of districts in 2026.

According to AJP president Lurinjyoti Gogoi and TIPRA chairman Pradyot Bikram Manikya, the proposed forum will aim to build regional political movements in order to defend indigenous people’s “identity.” 

The TIPRA, chaired by former Tripura Royal family member Pradyot Bikram Manikya Deb Barman, and the AJP, led by Lurinjyoti Gogoi, claimed in a joint statement released after the conference that the indigenous people of the northeastern states had long faced betrayal and deception. 

The people of the Northeast are becoming aware of and “even paying off for the consequences” of the BJP’s aggressive strategy in order to increase their grip in the Northeast. 

Initially, the two parties planned to continue holding various campaigns centered on five demands: repeal of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), updating the National Register of Citizens (NRC), constitutional provisions protecting indigenous people’s identity and culture, acceptance of Tipraland/Greater Tripraland, and full implementation of the Assam Accord.
