CM Biplab Deb Abords Three Ministers into Tripura Cabinet

Tripura cabinet expansion, three ministers join Biplab. 

Tripura CM Biplab Deb officially welcomes three ministers into his cabinet today (Tuesday). It is the first Cabinet expansion since the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) formed the government in the state in 2018.

The three, Sushanta Chowdhury, Bhagaban Das, and Ramprasad Paul are first-time legislators.

“We have taken the decision to expand our Cabinet to strengthen the government..., “ Deb told the journalists after the oath-taking ceremony.

The expansion followed a series of meetings BJP national secretary Dilip Saikia, its North-East zonal secretary (organization) Ajay Jamwal, the party’s Tripura unit in charge, Vinod Sonkar, and general secretary (organization) Phanindranath Sarma held in Agartala on Monday.

The four leaders rushed to Agartala on Monday after BJP leader Sudip Roy Barman, who was dropped from the state Cabinet in 2019 over alleged anti-party activities, held a meeting with some BJP legislators.

Barman said the meeting was held to identify BJP’s mistakes and weaknesses for strengthening the party. He claimed the BJP and the state government were uninterested in listening to the party’s workers and that they will bring these issues to the attention of the central party leadership.
