He also said that he would discuss the implementation of the much-hyped Tiprasa Accord after May 4, when the Assembly election results of West Bengal and several other states will be announced.“The central leadership is busy with campaigning and other things. I feel they will be freer after May 4. We will discuss the progress in implementing the Tiprasa Accord and decide our next course of action based on the indication we get from there,” he said.The Tiprasa Accord includes a proposal for direct funding from the central government to the Tripura ADC. If implemented, this would mean all funds for centrally sponsored schemes would be provided to the tribal council through an institutional framework.Recruitment policy framework on the cardsOn the roadmap to develop the administration in the tribal council areas, Debbarma said the ADC administration would introduce a new body on the lines of the Niti Ayog, which would conduct a social audit and bring in social reforms in a host of sectors, including recruitment, education system, music, and sports, apart from training the youth in business administration, artificial intelligence, etc.Story continues below this ad“We will bring in experts from different sectors—those not involved with politics—and transform the governance model into a participatory and efficient mechanism, changing the ADC into a vibrant economy,” he added.Also Read | Tripura ADC elections: High hopes for tribal solidarity in Northeast as Tipra Motha sweeps 24 of 28 seatsDebbarma also said that a high-powered committee has been tasked with drafting a comprehensive recruitment policy framework in line with the state government’s recruitment models.On who would be the next chief executive member of the Tripura ADC, along with other office bearers, Debbarma said the names would be announced after May 4.The Tripura ADC, formed in 1982, covers nearly 70 per cent of the state and is home to tribals from 19 recognised communities, who together make up about 30 per cent of the population. The council holds significant political importance, as 20 of the 60 seats in the state Legislative Assembly are reserved for tribals, giving them considerable influence in the formation of any government.
