Tipra Motha chief Bubagra Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma has expressed his appreciation for CK Jamatia, a retired IAS officer and the first from the Jamatia community, who recently completed his civil service tenure. In a recent social media post, Pradyot announced that Jamatia has shown interest in joining Tipra Motha soon, describing it as a positive step toward building a more progressive Tripura.
“Glad to have met CK Jamatia (IAS), who recently retired from his services. He was the first IAS officer from the Jamatia community. I am glad he has expressed his desire to join us soon. For a new team to see a progressive Tripura, we need educated and qualified people joining us,” Pradyot said.
His remarks have sparked widespread discussion in political circles, with sources indicating that CK Jamatia might contest in the upcoming elections under the Tipra Motha banner. If confirmed, this move would add significant administrative experience to the party, which continues to strengthen its base among Tripura’s tribal communities.
Pradyot Kishore’s statement reflects his ongoing effort to attract well-educated professionals and retired bureaucrats into the political fold. The Tipra Motha leader has repeatedly emphasized that Tripura’s development depends on inclusive and educated leadership that can address the aspirations of indigenous communities while maintaining unity and transparency in governance.
Political observers note that CK Jamatia’s possible entry into politics could have a major impact on Tripura’s tribal political landscape, especially considering his administrative record and community influence. As the first IAS officer from the Jamatia community, his decision to join active politics is seen as a significant development, bridging the gap between bureaucratic expertise and grassroots leadership.
Over the past few years, Tipra Motha has positioned itself as a powerful voice for Tiprasa rights and regional empowerment, especially through its advocacy for greater autonomy and welfare for tribal groups. The inclusion of experienced professionals like CK Jamatia aligns with the party’s strategy of blending youth energy with seasoned leadership.

Pradyot’s call for “educated and qualified people” joining politics also highlights his broader vision for Tripura’s future. His leadership approach has consistently focused on merit, integrity, and service-oriented governance, which resonates with young voters and educated citizens seeking change.
If CK Jamatia officially joins Tipra Motha and contests in the next election, it could boost the party’s image as a credible and reform-driven force in Tripura’s political arena. While no formal announcement has been made yet, sources within the party suggest that discussions are at an advanced stage and an official statement may follow soon.
The meeting between Pradyot Kishore and CK Jamatia is being seen as part of a larger effort by Tipra Motha to build a strong and visionary team ahead of upcoming political contests. With the inclusion of experienced personalities from various professional backgrounds, the party aims to reinforce its commitment to inclusive development and transparent governance in Tripura.
