Agartala, Feb 10: Six hardcore cadres of the National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT) laid down their arms before security forces in Tripura on Friday.
The surrendered NLFT militants are Jatindra Tripura (36), Mokhiram Tripura (36), Pradip Tripura (27), Romawia Reang (50), Johanjoy Reang (36), and Mani Charan Tripura (38).
The militants deposited two Chinese rifles, one country-made sten gun, six live rounds of 70 mm ammunition, two Chinese grenades, and many other items of ammunition.
“The group of six, having been cornered and getting motivated, renounced the path of bloodshed and made a choice of peace. This group of NLFT has been operationally very active across the fence in Bangladesh. They joined the NLFT outfit between 2017 and 2022,” an official statement stated.
So far, 36 active members of the NLFT have surrendered before the Tripura Police and security forces in the recent past.
