Tripura: Extremist from Banned NLFT Surrenders to BSF
Northeast Desk, 27th January: An individual associated with the banned outfit National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT) surrendered before the Border Security Force (BSF) in Gandacherra, situated in Dhalai district.
BSF sources reported that today, within the jurisdiction of Border Out Post (BOP) Dyke village under Gandachera in Dhalai, an unlisted cadre of NLFT (BM) willingly surrendered before the BSF authorities. Chhanaklu Debbarma, a resident of Sepahijala district, made the decision to embrace the mainstream of the nation and surrendered at approximately 9 AM.
Chhanaklu Debbarma had joined the NLFT (BM) outfit in October 2022. The surrender marks a positive stride in curbing insurgency in Tripura, with the BSF emphasizing the collective efforts of central agencies and state authorities in encouraging militants to return to mainstream society. This initiative is expected to inspire other misguided youths to abandon the path of violence.
