AGARTALA, Aug 10 (TIWN): Amid IPFT's warning of breaking the alliance, if they are not given one MP seat to fight in the upcoming Lok Sabha Election, Assam Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma while replying media queries on that issue said, "We will manage and I think resolution will come out".
Sarma also said that he talks to the IPFT leaders regularly from his state and he doesn't feel there can be any issue like that.
Noteworthy, IPFT has demanded one MP seat for IPFT among two seats of Tripura, but BJP has not shown much interest as without IPFT also BJP will hold the power. On the other side, IPFT is confident on tribal vote banks claiming without IPFT, BJP will not be voted to power.
IPFT-Tipraha (Divided IPFT) leader Budhu Debbarma said recently, IPFT led by NC Debbarma (which is in power) will surely align with BJP as NC Debbarma's aim is to get hefty of cashes in Election season.
