The seat sharing deal between ruling BJP and its ally in Tripura government Indigenous Peoples Front of Tripura (IPFT) in upcoming Tripura Tribal Areas District Council (TTAADC) elections expected to be held within next three months has appeared to be the main trembling block for survival of the alliance. The IPFT joined hands with BJP before 2018 assembly poll with the assurance that the later party will facilitate them to achieve their ultimate target of empowerment of ADC and enjoy autonomy in true sense. The BJP leaders were committed to give free hand to IPFT in running the administration in ADC besides, elevating the status of ADC.
