Tripuri nationalism

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Tripuri Nationalism is an ideology that supports

Republic of India in 1949 as the state of Tripura.[citation needed
]

The issue has led to a number of armed uprisings and Insurgency in Tripura. There was a rebellion in 1950,[2] and armed conflict continued to erupt in the 1980s to 2000s. Since 1989, the armed rebellion was mostly led by the National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT) and the All Tripura Tiger Force ATTF).[3][4] The Bengali side retaliated by forming militias of their own, such as the United Bengali Liberation Tiger Front (UBLTF), which destroyed a number of Tripuri villages in 2000.[citation needed]

The NLFT is classified by the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism as one of the ten most active terrorist groups in the world, and has been accused of forcefully converting people to Christianity.[5][3]

Militant activity peaked in 2000 with 514 terrorism-related fatalities in that year. As of 2012, the uprising has largely been brought under control by the authorities through security actions and negotiated surrenders.[6]
