New Delhi, July 23, 2025: <\/strong>A high-level delegation from the Tipra Motha Party, led by party founder and royal scion Bubagra Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma, met with the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) of India today at Nirvachan Sadan, New Delhi, to press for an urgent Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls in Tripura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the meeting, the delegation expressed grave concerns over the alleged inclusion of ineligible voters, particularly illegal immigrants from Bangladesh and Myanmar, in the state\u2019s voter lists. The team called for a comprehensive door-to-door verification of electoral rolls, taking inspiration from the recent revision model implemented in Bihar. The party emphasized that this step is critical to safeguard the political and constitutional rights of Tripura\u2019s Indigenous communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bubagra Pradyot Manikya, speaking to the media after the meeting, delivered a strong message: \u201cWe are Hani Bwsa \u2014 Hani Bwsa ko gaddari nahi kar sakte. Agar aise hi chalta raha toh Tripura ke liye khatra hai, Northeast ke liye bhi khatra hai \u2014 aur hum yeh bardasht nahi kar sakte.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have requested the Election Commission to initiate a full review of Tripura\u2019s electoral rolls. The unchecked influx of undocumented individuals and manipulation of identity documents not only threatens electoral fairness but also marginalizes Indigenous people in their own homeland,\u201d said Cem Purna Chandra Jamatia, a senior leader of Tipra Motha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The party cited historical data, including a 2012 incident when nearly 1.48 lakh illegal voters were reportedly identified in Tripura but no corrective action was taken. Referring to demographic trends, the delegation noted that population growth in Tripura between 1971 and 1991 far exceeded national averages, coinciding with large-scale migration across the porous 856-kilometre border with Bangladesh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Tipra Motha leaders, many illegal immigrants have managed to obtain voter IDs, Aadhaar cards, and even passports through fraudulent means, allegedly with the help of corrupt officials and political middlemen. They warned that such irregularities not only distort the electoral mandate in Scheduled Tribe (ST) reserved constituencies but also pose a risk to national security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To ensure impartiality in the revision process, the delegation proposed that verification staff be brought in from outside the concerned districts and adequately trained to resist local political pressures. They also suggested launching awareness campaigns in remote and tribal areas to educate genuine voters about their rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response, the Chief Election Commissioner assured the delegation that the Election Commission of India is committed to reviewing electoral rolls across the country, including in Tripura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tipra Motha Party reiterated that failure to act swiftly could further erode public trust in the democratic process. \u201cThis is not merely a bureaucratic exercise \u2014 it is about protecting the identity, voice, and future of Indigenous people in Tripura,\u201d said Bubagra Pradyot during the meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The party has called on the Commission to treat the matter with utmost seriousness and constitutional responsibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
