Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha has appealed to the people to vote for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the upcoming Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC) elections, stressing the importance of peace and development in the region. Speaking at a programme in Dhumacherra, Dhalai district, Saha emphasised that other political parties, including the Congress, CPI(M), and Tipra Motha Party, have already been given a chance to govern the autonomous tribal areas but have failed to deliver meaningful development.
“The elections for 28 TTAADC seats will be announced soon. This time, the people must vote for the BJP for peace and progress, as other parties have already proven unable to meet the aspirations of the tribal communities,” Saha said. He highlighted the BJP’s commitment to the welfare and development of the tribal people in Tripura.
The TTAADC elections are expected to be held in March-April 2026, aiming to elect all 28 members of the council. Of these, 25 seats are reserved for Scheduled Tribes, reflecting the council’s mandate to represent tribal communities in the state. Saha’s appeal comes as the BJP seeks to strengthen its presence in the tribal areas of Tripura.
