  • Tripura CM Manik Saha denies opposition's plea to review state emblem, affirming that the decision followed extensive consultation. Opposition argues emblem lacks representation of Tripura's heritage.

Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha has rejected the demand by opposition parties, including the CPI(M) and Congress, to review the recently approved state emblem. The emblem, which was approved by the state cabinet on March 15, 2024, features the iconic 'Chhatra', 'Mukut', and 'Dhanu', symbolizing the state's historical and cultural heritage. Opposition leaders argue that the emblem was changed without proper consultation and that it represents a political agenda. However, CM Saha defended the decision, stating that the emblem reflects the state's rich history and identity, and there is no need for a review as it was a well-considered decision by the cabinet.
