The ruling BJP in Tripura has set its sights on the upcoming Lok Sabha election by establishing a 74-member Lok Sabha Election Management Committee to oversee affairs in the state's two parliamentary constituencies, West and East (ST).
Chaired by BJP state president Rajib Bhattacharya, the election committee, which included key figures such as Assam-Tripura General Secretary (Organization) Ravindra Raju, General Secretaries Amit Rakhshit, and Bipin Debbarma, meticulously crafted this committee to ensure smooth operations throughout the electoral process.
