AGARTALA | July 6, 2026: With due solemnity and patriotic fervor, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Tripura Pradesh Committee celebrated the 125th birth anniversary of the legendary statesman and founder of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, Bharat Kesari Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee, today. A central commemorative event was organized at the state party headquarters in Agartala, drawing hundreds of party karyartas, leaders, and public representatives.
The ceremonial program was led by the Chief Minister of Tripura, Professor (Dr.) Manik Saha, alongside the newly appointed BJP State Pradesh President, Shri Abhishek Debroy.
Paying Floral Tributes to the Architect of National Integration
The celebration began with the senior leadership offering floral tributes at the portrait of Dr. Mookerjee amid slogans honoring his lasting legacy. Sharing the stage to celebrate the historic milestone were senior state cabinet ministers, MLAs, and top organizational secretaries of the state unit.
The speakers highlighted Dr. Mookerjee’s stellar academic background as the youngest Vice-Chancellor of Calcutta University, his brilliant legal mind, and his historic fight to ensure that Jammu & Kashmir remained an inseparable part of the Indian Union.
Addressing the party workers, Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha emphasized that the current development model of the country is a direct realization of the foundational philosophy laid down by Dr. Mookerjee.
”Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee’s vision was centered on an undivided, strong, and self-reliant India. He firmly believed that a nation cannot function under two constitutions, two flags, and two prime ministers, and he laid down his life to establish that principle. Under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, that dream was finally realized with the historic abrogation of Article 370. As we celebrate his 125th birth anniversary, every karyakarta must pledge to imbibe his values of selfless service, national integration, and dedication to the farthest citizen in society,” Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha stated during his address.
Strengthening the Organizational Footprint Across Tripura
Speaking at the event, State President Abhishek Debroy called upon the youth and party wings to carry Dr. Mookerjee’s message of absolute nationalism and social harmony to every household across Tripura. He noted that the state unit will be organizing a week-long series of localized seminars, blood donation drives, and cultural events across all mandals to educate the younger generation about the struggles and contributions of the foundational leaders.
The central event at the state headquarters concluded with a collective pledge by the leadership to strengthen the organizational framework while executing the welfare policies of the double-engine government to uplift rural and marginalized communities across the state.
