Agartala, Feb 24: Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma, the former chairman of Tipra Motha and a prominent figure in Tripura’s indigenous community, has issued a stark ultimatum to the Central government.

Unless the longstanding grievances of Tripura’s indigenous population are addressed promptly, Pradyot has declared his intention to begin a fast unto death, a drastic measure aimed at drawing attention to their plight.

In a heartfelt audio message released on February 24, Pradyot expressed deep disappointment with what he perceives as the neglect of Tripura’s indigenous people by officials and leaders in Delhi.

He accused them of dismissing the state’s concerns as insignificant and deferring crucial discussions on finding a constitutional solution for the indigenous communities.

“I have fought passionately for my people, and today, we find ourselves at the end of this struggle. I have sacrificed everything for my Tiprasa,” Pradyot declared in his message, conveying the intensity of his dedication to the cause.

Emphasizing the urgent need for equal recognition and status for indigenous communities, particularly within the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC), Pradyot highlighted the gravity of the situation.

He warned that if the Government of India does not take decisive action, he is prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice for his people by commencing a fast unto death.

“I am prepared to prioritize my cause over my health and family. I am willing to die for my people,” Pradyot affirmed with resolute determination. “I fear nothing, as I am convinced of the righteousness of my cause. I will persist in this struggle until my last breath.”

Pradyot’s declaration underscores the gravity of the situation facing Tripura’s indigenous communities and the urgency with which their grievances must be addressed.

His willingness to undertake a fast unto death reflects the depth of frustration and disillusionment felt by many within these marginalized groups.

As the Central government faces mounting pressure to respond to Pradyot’s ultimatum, the future of Tripura’s indigenous population hangs in the balance, awaiting a resolution that offers hope and justice for their long-standing demands.
