2023 Tripura Legislative Assembly elections were held on 16 February 2023 to elect all 60 members of the Tripura Legislative Assembly. The votes were counted and the results were declared on 2 March 2023.

The Bharatiya Janata Party won a simple majority, defeating its rivals Secular Democratic Forces and the Tipra Motha Party.[2] Tipra Motha Party won 13 seats at its debut and became the largest opposition party in Tripura.[3]

Background

[edit]

The tenure of 12th Tripura Assembly is scheduled to end on 22 March 2023.[4] The previous assembly elections were held in February 2018. After the election, Bharatiya Janata Party formed the state government, with Biplab Kumar Deb becoming the Chief Minister.[5]

Biplab Kumar Deb resigned from Chief Minister post on 14 May 2022[6] and he was succeeded by Manik Saha as the new chief minister.[7]

TTAADC elections

[edit]

Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council elections were held in April 2021, in which a new Tripuri outfit, the Tipraha Indigenous Progressive Regional Alliance, formed by a scion of the erstwhile royal family of Tripura, Pradyot Bikram Manikya Deb Barma, won an astounding victory, drubbing both the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Communist Party of India (Marxist), with the TIPRA and its ally the Indigenous Nationalist Party of Twipra winning a total of 18 out of the 28 elected council seats. The BJP was restricted to 9 seats and the CPI(M) was completely washed out, unable to win any seats, losing their supermajority of 100% seats in the council.[8]

Major political defections

[edit]

In 2022, 8 National Democratic Alliance (5 Bharatiya Janata Party and 3 Indigenous People's Front of Tripura) MLAs resigned and left the BJP, out of which 4 joined TIPRA, 3 joined the Indian National Congress, and 1 joined the Trinamool Congress (albeit later resigned from the party).[9][10] There have been defections in the TTAADC where BJP MDC leader Hangsha Kumar Tripura joined TIPRA.[11][12]

Reports emerged in late January in which the Tipra Motha Party was in talks for a possible alliance with the BJP and IPFT.

However last minute reports later stated that BJP talks with TMP fell off while BJP announced to continue alliance with IPFT, BJP announced that the party was still against IPFT's demand for Tipraland and that the party would be allotted 6 seats as per the alliance agreement.[14][15][16]

[edit]
Map of the seat sharing arrangement of Secular Democratic Forces

In early January reports emerged that the Congress and CPI(M) had begun talks of a possible alliance between the parties to unitedly defeat the incumbent government (NDA). Congress and CPI(M) had initially held talks with the Tipra Motha Party however both parties later backed out of the talks as each party did not want to change its ideological stance for the alliance with each other.[20][21] The TMP later announced it would be contesting alone in the upcoming election while on 14 January 2023, the CPI(M) and the Congress announced to enter into seat sharing agreement for the upcoming assembly elections.[22] General Secretary of the CPI(M) Sitaram Yechury said the main purpose of organising this united front between opposition parties was to defeat the BJP.[23][24][25] On 25 January 2023, Left Front convenor Narayan Kar announced seat sharing formula : CPI(M) - 43 seats, Congress - 13 seats, CPI - 1 seat, RSP - 1 seat, AIFB - 1 seat and independent - 1 seat. After the Congress announced candidates for 17 seats, Left Front filled candidates in all 60 seats (CPIM - 56, CPI - 1, RSP - 1, AIFB - 1, Independent -1). Later after CPI(M) stated it would withdraw 13 candidates and allot the seats to the INC, however INC stated they were looking for 17 seats. Post discussions INC agreed to 13 seats however they were given preference in choosing the seats in which they want to contest.[26][27]

Purushuttam Roy Barman, independent candidate of SDF from Ramnagar was also supported by the Tipra Motha Party against the BJP.[28]

Issues

[edit]

10323 Teachers batch

[edit]

In 2017, a Tripura High Court order was confirmed by a Supreme Court bench that declared the recruitment of teachers in batches between 2010 and 2013 to be "unconstitutional" because of a policy that gave preference to poor and senior candidates. The confirmation had happened a few months before the 2018 Tripura Legislative Assembly election and the Bharatiya Janata Party had promised that the teachers would be retained if they came to power and their jobs would be saved even if they had to resort to amending the constitution. The teachers, numbering 10,323 extended their support to the BJP in the election and were moved to a contractual status for about two years but were then terminated and replaced with new hires. The teachers faced economic hardships after the sacking and many of them have become indebted and have resorted to menial jobs. Of those sacked, 150 have died with 8 of them confirmed to be suicides, including Rumi Debbarma, a master's degree gold medalist, who was forcefully evicted from an indefinite roadside protest and couldn't take the humiliation of termination.[44][45]

The teachers had held hundreds of protests, demonstration and rallies, and met with several chief ministers and their cabinets. The protests were met with harsh police actions and cases lodged against several of the teachers. The BJP government in Tripura has shifted its position and refused to reinstate the teachers, one minister Ratan Lal Nath had called them unqualified.[44][45]

The Communist Party of India (Marxist) have extended their support to the teachers and promised to reinstate them in its manifesto. To give assurances to their promise, The Left Front has fielded two of the teachers Sudip Sarkar (CPIM) and Satyajit Reang (CPI) as its own candidates from the constituencies of Barjala and Santirbazar respectively. Former chief minister Manik Sarkar has stated that the order was "most unfortunate" as it overturned a policy that they had introduced to help the weaker sections of society and even alleged that the bench was linked to the Sangh Parivar.[44][45] The Tipra Motha Party and lawyer Kapil Sibal, an independent MP have also extended their support to the teachers.[46]

Tipraland Movement

[edit]

The Tipraha Indigenous Progressive Regional Alliance (TIPRA) has demanded a separate state for the Kokborok-speaking Tripuri population called Tipraland to be created out of the Bengali Hindu majority state from the areas included under the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council. However the ruling party BJP refuses to bifurcate the state.[47] TIPRA party also has won elections in 2021 Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council election. The TTADC areas have 20 of the 60 Assembly seats in Tripura Legislative Assembly.

Ruling BJP has offered talk with the TIPRA party for their demand. Former Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb stated that demands by TIPRA are not possible without BJP.[48] But Chief Minister, Manik Saha said that Tipraland is not possible.[49]

Home Ministry on 25 January 2023 called upon TIPRA leadership to discuss the issue of Greater Tipraland. The talk however did not result in any announcement as the delegates did not reach to any agreement.[50][51]

Government formation

[edit]

Incumbent Chief Minister Manik Saha gave resignation to Governor Satyadev Narayan Arya and staked claim new government with support of 33 MLAs (32 BJP and 1 IPFT).[82][83]

Aftermath

[edit]

After the poll results, violent attacks were unleashed on the workers of Left Front and Congress, allegedly by BJP. The CPI(M) demanded a judicial inquiry into the violence and also wrote to the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) seeking intervention in the matter.[84][85] Partido Comunista Português expressed its solidarity with CPI(M), CPI and other democratic and progressive forces in Tripura.[86] A delegation composed of Member of Parliaments from CPI(M), CPI and Congress visited Tripura on 10 March 2023 and met with the affected families and administration officials to assess the situation on the ground.[85]
