Agartala: The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party in Tripura may boast of its recent by-election victory as a prelude to its probable success in 2023 general elections, but the real challenge for the party is ahead in the form of Village Committee (VC) elections slated to be held in November.
This time, the battle will be between two ruling parties — the BJP that is ruling the state and royal scion Pradyot Kishore Debbarman-led TIPRA, an emergent political party now in power in the TTAADC tribal areas.
After the High Court’s intervention, it is quite clear that the state election commission will declare the VC polls soon after Durga Puja and by November, the whole process would be completed.
