Tripura

Tranquil Tripura, tucked away in the extreme Southwest corner of the North Eastern States, between the river valleys of Myanmar and Bangladesh is one of the least known parts of the region. This ancient land of a mysterious past has a unique tribal culture and a fascinating folklore. The 'Rajmala' Chronicles of an ancient King Tripura, after which the region is said to be named as Tripura and writings of other Mohammedan historians reflects the glorious past of the land. According to 'Rajmala', the rulers were known by the surname of 'Fa' meaning father'. They defeated the Mohammedan Sultans of Bengal in several battles.

A new era dawned on Tripura in the 19th century, as Maharaja Birchandra Kishore Manikya Bahadur modelled his administrative set-up on the lines of British India and brought about several reforms. Tripura never came under direct British rule and the Maharaja's successors ruled over the State till it acceded to the Indian Union on 15th October 1949. It became a centrally administered Union Territory in 1956 and attained full fledged Statehood in the year 1972.
