AGARTALA, May 16 (TIWN): After two months of the election result when BJP-IPFT formed a govt here in Tripura, the separatist party IPFT has started a crucial meeting at Nazrul Kalakshetra to decide about whether to go with the 'Continuation of Alliance' with BJP or 'Not'.
This meeting was called following the ideological differences and ongoing clashes between these two parties.
However, it was reported that amid the ongoing tensions among the BJP and IPFT, the IPFT Chief NC Debbarma is ready to settle-down the issues and continue the alliance with ruling BJP. Not only 5 years, IPFT is ready to continue alliance for 15 years, even 20 years but things should be under control.
Recently following various clashes and road blockades led by IPFT demanding IPFT-dominated ADC, the relation between IPFT and BJP worsened. The Chief Minister Biplab Deb also has telephoned the IPFT Chief N C Debbarma to settle down issues as they are in ‘alliance’.
The main issue was raised after BJP Govt appointed BJP tribal leaders as ADC area's blocks BAC Chairpersons. According to IPFT, BJP leaders or any other as INPT can’t rule any block in ADC. Various road blockade, strikes were staged in protest by the IPFT.
The matters have turned so worse that the parties are thinking to break the alliance.
Today after the meeting it will be announced by IPFT whether to break up with BJP or go with BJP. However, without IPFT also, BJP will be in majority.
