Tripura National Volunteers
The Tripura National Volunteer Force was established on 10 November 1978 under the name Tripura National Volunteers of Bijoy Hrangkhwal and comrades.
Development
In the second half of the 20th century, the population structure in the former Kingdom of Tripura radically changed. The following economic and political marginalization of the original population had different causes: To promote the integration of Bengal, the government supported the establishment of sedentary agriculture based immigrants on the land which was used for their shifting cultivation residents Tripuras. The refugees were educated on average and soon occupied important positions. The political parties started mainly to compete with their voices to the growing number of Bengal. To the claims of all autonomy movements in Tripura therefore next to the expulsion of illegal immigrants is one of the loss of voting rights for immigrants after 1952 and a redistribution of the country.
Fighters of TNVF, hid in the Chittagong Hill Tracts, where they received support from the government ( the Muslim ) Bangladesh. Cooperated was from the beginning with the Mizo National Front (MNF ) in Mizoram. They raided for a security forces from ambush, on the other Bengali civilians as a terrorist action. Were attacked also cadres of CPI ( M), the set 1978-88 and from 1993 onwards the State Government. The group had probably never more than 400 fighters. Bijoy Hrangkhwal was from June to December 1980 in prison.
Some immigrants organized themselves into the " Amra Bengali " ( "We Bengal "), which occasionally natives slaughtered, but until now not grew to greater danger.
The stated goal of TNVF it was all immigrants, mostly fled from East Pakistan bengalischsprechende Hindus to drive again. The established political parties accused of selling out the country. The worst single outbreak of violence against immigrants happened in the summer of 1988 in Mandai Bazar, near the capital, Agartala, where in one day 300 Bengal died, go to the state of the estimates of the day over a thousand.
Binanda Jamatia founded on 12 December 1980, the splinter group All Tripura People's Liberation Organization ( ATPLO ) in Bangladesh. Jamatia organized the kidnapping of the couple Hrangkhwal on August 13, 1982 Kamalacharra to Bangladesh.
1981 Chuni Koloi and comrades split off. After a raid on the police station in Manu on September 3, 1982, the group was well armed and now attacked the base of ATPLO in November, where they freed Hrangkhwal. Several ATPLO fighters ran over to Koloi, another part there was the government. The freed Hrangkhawl took the fight on again until in Delhi in 1988 an agreement with the central government has been closed. 447 TNVF fighters laid down their arms. The agreement followed the pattern of the Naga and Mizo closed, but also the expulsion of illegal entrants is also provided. At this point, little has been done. Hrangkhawal seemed, with his new position as Chairman of the rehabilitation commission responsible for the redistribution of land to have been satisfied.
The remaining radical faction split in 1990 into the All Tripura Tiger Force ( ATTF ) and Tripura Resurrection Army ( TRA). Several dissidents also found after 1989 their way into the National Liberation Front of Tripura ( NLFT ), which fell apart in the subsequent years in a variety of more or less criminal little group.
