Agartala, Tripura, 23rd of February, 2026 : Hon’ble Chief Minister Prof. Dr. Manik Saha today said that a massive reign of loot is taking place in the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC) under the current administration.
He said that the present Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in the state genuinely aims to work for the welfare of tribal people.
Dr Saha also emphasized that for real development in the district council, the BJP must win all 28 seats in the upcoming election.
Dr. Saha said this while addressing a public meeting organized by the BJP at Manubankul in the South district.
“For so long, who really cared for the tribals? When Atal Bihari Vajpayee first became Prime Minister, there was no separate department for tribal affairs at the center. It was during his tenure that the first dedicated department for tribal welfare was established. Later, when Narendra Modi became Prime Minister, efforts for tribal development became more vigorous. Today, our country is recognized not only through words but also through deeds,” he said.
Dr. Saha added that recently he had appointed a tribal personality as the Chairman of the Tripura Public Service Commission (TPSC).
“Out of the three members, one tribal woman has been appointed as a member. We truly want to work for the welfare of tribal people,” he stated.
He further criticized opposition slogans, saying, “The slogan thansa is just meant to deceive people. In reality, there is no real work. Misunderstandings are being created to serve personal interests. The only reign in the ADC is one of loot—deciding who will take how much. I have all the audit reports. We know exactly what is happening there. If you truly want ADC’s development, ensure that BJP wins all 28 seats in the coming election. This is possible if you have faith and trust in us and in Prime Minister Narendra Modi.”
Dr. Saha also accused the CPIM of disrespecting the Maharajas of Tripura in the past.
“They kept the Maharajas confined to their homes. Today, because we embraced democracy, the Maharajas have come forward, and now others speak in grand words. But where were they before? We named Agartala Airport after Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya Bahadur and have taken several initiatives in the name of the Maharajas,” he said.
The meeting was attended by BJP Pradesh General Secretary Bipin Debbarma, District President Dipayan Chowdhury, South District President Deepak Dutta, MLA Mailafru Mog, and others.
