Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma, the founder of the Tipra Motha party and a royal scion, stated that the reopening of the Bangladesh Assistant High Commission in Agartala should be contingent upon the cessation of attacks on Hindu minorities in Bangladesh and the withdrawal of anti-India statements. His comments followed the suspension of all visa and consular services by the mission due to protests organized by the Youth Tipra Motha Federation. Debbarma emphasized the importance of national unity, urging the people of Tripura to prioritize collective strength over political differences. He asserted that the office would remain closed until the alleged torture of Hindu minorities and hostilities towards India are addressed. Debbarma highlighted that this situation reflects India’s strength, advocating for a unified national identity over political party affiliation, and called on citizens to protest against Bangladesh to assert their national identity.
