Speaking to ANI, he said, "Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has announced the names of 28 candidates for the 28 centres in the upcoming Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC) elections. I urge the voters to support these candidates to fulfil Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of "Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas" and "Ek Bharat, Shreshth Bharat" along with CM Manik Saha's vision of "Viksit Tripura, Ek Tripura, Shreshth Tripura."
Addressing a joint press meet alongside Chief Minister Manik Saha and other senior leaders, Bhattacharjee announced the list of 28 party candidates and expressed optimism about winning with a huge margin. He emphasised that the party's organisational strength and development agenda would resonate strongly with voters in the tribal regions.
Notably, while the BJP shares power in Tripura with allies like the Indigenous People's Front of Tripura (IPFT) and the Tipra Motha Party (TMP), all alliance partners are contesting the TTAADC elections separately this time. The IPFT has also fielded its own candidates for the polls.
Both CM Manik Saha and BJP state president Rajib Bhattacharjee, in separate interactions, have reiterated that although the alliance remains intact in the government, the parties have strategically chosen to fight the ADC elections individually.
