The BJP chose [[Biplab Kumar Deb]] to be the next Chief Minister. He said: "I am ready to take the responsibility. I will not run away from taking the responsibility. I have already been given a bigger responsibility, the party's state presidentship, which I have been fulfilling to the best of my ability. People responded favourably to our call '[[Bengali language|Chalo Paltai]]' (let's change)." He claimed that having the same party in the central government and at the state level "helps in faster development." He further called for restraint in post-electoral violence: "We do not believe in the politics of vengeance and hatred, so we appeal to the people to maintain peace and calm." In addition he asserted that "the word development does not exist in the dictionary of the CPI-M. Our government will provide good governance and time-bound implementation of all developmental works."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rediff.com/news/report/gym-instructor-turned-politician-biplab-kumar-deb-likely-to-be-tripura-cm/20180304.htm|title=Gym instructor-turned-politician Biplab Kumar Deb likely to be Tripura CM - Rediff.com India News|website=www.rediff.com}}</ref>

Polling for the seat of [[Charilam (Vidhan Sabha constituency)|Charilam]] was postponed to 12 March 2018 after the death of [[Communist Party of India (Marxist)]] incumbent candidate [[Ramendra Narayan Debbarma]].
