Tipraha Indigenous Progressive Regional Alliance or TIPRA or Tipra Motha is a regional political party which was initially a social organization of Tripura, India.[2][3][4] The TIPRA is led by Pradyot Bikram Manikya DebBarma.[5][6]
History[edit | edit source]
On 25 Feb 2019, Pradyot Bikram Manikya DebBarma was appointed the President of Tripura Pradesh Congress Committee.[7][8] Within a few months, Pradyot resigned from the Pradesh Congress President post, accusing the Congress 'high command' of pressuring him to accommodate 'corrupt people'.[9] Almost three months after resigning from the Pradesh Congress President post, Pradyot formed an organization to work for the rights of the indigenous people.[10]
On 5 February 2021, TIPRA chairman Kirit Pradyot Deb Barman announced that their organisation has become a political party and would contest in the 2021 TTAADC elections.[11][12] The primary demand of the TIPRA is the formation of "Greater Tipraland".[13][11][14][15]
The Indigenous Nationalist Party of Twipra (INPT), Tipraland State Party (TSP) and IPFT (Tipraha) merged with the TIPRA in 2021.[16][17][18][19]
Ideological positions[edit | edit source]
TIPRA main objective is the creation of a new state 'Greater Tipraland' under the Article 2 & 3 of the Constitution of India.[20] The Motha emphasizes Tipra (Tripuri) nationalism which is evident with the slogan "Puila Jati, Ulobo Jati" and "Puila Jati, Ulo Party" (Community first party later).[21] It aims to first empower and emancipate the Tiprasa people before anything else. The party sees its activities as peoples' movement rather than a political one.[22]
Recent electoral history[edit | edit source]
The Tipraha Indigenous Progressive Regional Alliance (TIPRA) has scripted a stunning electoral debut by winning a majority in the 28-member Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council elections along with its ally Indigenous Nationalist Party of Twipra (INPT). TIPRA won 16 seats while its ally the INPT drew 2 seats.[23]
The result not only ended the Left Front’s 15-year rule of the council but also became the only regional party to come into power in the council without alliance with national party.[24]
