A late night meeting was held between Tripura Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha and Pradyot Kishore Debbarma, chairman of main Opposition party TIPRA Motha.
The meeting that started at around 8.30 PM Thursday in the official residence of the Chief Minister, concluded late in the night at around 11.45 PM.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting concluded, Pradyot, also the royal scion of Tripura, said that as the Budget Session is going to be held soon hence he came to meet the CM and the discussion was on issues related to ADC (autonomous district council) and fund flow beside other issues which he would not like to reveal right now and is likely to talk about in a press conference in the next few days.
When asked if the long pending issue about declaring the name of the interlocutor by the Union Home Ministry to discuss the constitutional solution for the development of the tribal people and Tipraland was discussed, Pradyot said, “See after three months we are much wiser and smarter so I will not give any statement still something concrete happens but yes Budget Session is coming and we have spoken about TTAADC (Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council) and release of funds beside various other subjects – political and administrative which will come to light once it is formalised.”
“Should not we continue our dialogue in democracy, I stand by my demand but I have to hear their (CM’s) point of view……I do not believe in the boycott culture and I discussed regarding overall development of Tripura. I speak for all and on positive things. Every time I go and meet someone and then people try to get political mileage out of it that is not right. We have spoke on host of issues, whatever has been discussed is between the Chief Minister and me and it will remain so. Everything cannot be disclosed to the media as it was private. On right time it will be discussed and come before you.”
However, the Opposition party supremo reiterated that his party demand (for greater Tipraland) is in ‘black and white, clear and it shall remain’.
He added that he shall continue to speak on his core demand or for the existence of his community but not against the right of any community.
Along with Pradyot Kishore his party MLA Brishaketu Debbarma was also seen driving out of the CM’s official residence with Pradyot Debbarma.
