Surrendered Tripura Militants Begin 72-Hour Shutdown Over Peace Accord Implementation
Surrendered militants from seven Tripura insurgent groups began a 72-hour shutdown on September 4, 2024, blocking highways and railways to demand implementation of a peace accord signed earlier that year. The agreement, brokered by Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Tripura officials, included a ₹250 crore rehabilitation package. Protesters seek fulfillment of multiple demands, including case withdrawals and security guarantees. Authorities are monitoring the situation and engaging with protesters to restore normalcy amid disruptions to transport and public life.
