He said, "We don't trust in your words, give us in writing. If not in writing, don't try to buy me, don't give me a lollipop. It's not just my fight, it's the fight of 13 lakh indigenous Tripuris.”
Pradyot was addressing a gathering of a large number of women in the syndicate ground of Khumulwung in a mega women gathering.
“We shall not compromise with the Greater Tipraland demand,” he said, adding that the one last fight of the TIPRA Motha seeking constitutional rights for the indigenous tribes needs to be strengthened further.
He attacked the ruling BJP party on Monday and said, “No one talks about hospitals here, they talk about temples. They talk about Pakistan-China but not about the open borders with Bangladesh.”
