Agartala: Mar 28: The Tribal Liberation Council (GMP) has written to Governor Indrasena Reddy, demanding Minister Ratan Lal Nath’s removal from the state cabinet. This move comes after Nath allegedly made caste-based comments and threatened an opposition leader during a Tripura Legislative Assembly session on March 24 .
The GMP condemned Nath’s behavior, stating it was unacceptable and insulting to democratic values, particularly for tribal communities. They emphasized that this incident was unprecedented in the Assembly’s history and damaged its image.
Ratan Lal Nath is the Minister of Power, Agriculture & Farmers’ Welfare, Law, and Election in the Tripura government ¹. The GMP’s demand for his removal reflects growing dissatisfaction among tribal communities, who feel their rights and dignity were undermined by his remarks.
The incident has sparked widespread outrage, with calls for accountability and action against discriminatory practices. The issue is now at the center of public debate, with many watching to see how the government will respond to the GMP’s demands.
