The Tripura Tribal Council adopted a resolution urging the state government to enforce the TIPRASA Accord within a fixed timeline.
The Tripura Tribal Council convened a special session and passed a resolution calling for the immediate, time‑bound execution of the TIPRASA Accord. Council members emphasized that the agreement, signed several years ago, remains only partially implemented, leaving many tribal communities without promised benefits.
The TIPRASA Accord, negotiated between the state government and tribal representatives, aims to safeguard tribal land rights, promote socio‑economic development, and ensure political representation. Council leaders said that without a clear timetable, the intended safeguards risk being eroded.
In the resolution, the council stipulated a concrete schedule for each component of the accord, demanded regular monitoring by an independent committee, and urged the state administration to allocate requisite funds without delay. The council pledged to keep the issue under continuous public scrutiny until full compliance is achieved.
