Carrying the Hopes of Tiprasa People, David Murasing Begins Historic Pedal March from Agartala to Delhi

Agartala | 05 July 2025 | NE Times Bharat 24

In a powerful act of non-violent resistance, David Murasing, a determined son of the soil, has set out on a historic pedal march from Agartala to Delhi. Starting at exactly 10:00 AM on July 5th, this journey is not just a physical test of endurance — it is the echo of a people’s cry for justice.

Walking over 2,500 kilometers through the National Highways NH-27 and NH-44, David's mission is as simple as it is profound: to submit a blood-signed memorandum to the Central Government demanding long-overdue justice for the indigenous Tiprasa people.

This is not merely a march; it is a movement — a soul-stirring pilgrimage bearing the hopes, struggles, and silent tears of generations. At the heart of this mission lie three core demands that have shaped the identity and pain of the Tiprasa people:

1. Greater Tipraland – A constitutional recognition and autonomous self-governance for the Tiprasa, rooted in dignity, history, and identity.

2. Tiprasa Accord – A robust legal protection for the land, culture, and identity of indigenous people, ensuring their survival in their own homeland.

3. Deportation of Illegal Immigrants – A final call to secure the future of Tripura’s sons and daughters from demographic dilution and socio-political marginalization.

42 Days of Struggle, 50 Days of Hope

According to calculations by NE Times Bharat 24, walking 12 hours a day at an average speed of 5 km/hr, David and his team will cover approximately 60 km per day, completing their journey in about 42 days. With allowances for medical emergencies, weather, and fatigue, it may extend to 50 days, placing their estimated arrival in Delhi between August 15 and 25 — poetically coinciding with India’s Independence Day, a day that marks freedom, yet leaves many in the Northeast still struggling for theirs.

A Cry Ignored Too Long

This march is a direct indictment of the Indian State and the Tripura government – a mirror held up to the apathy shown toward the cries of the Tiprasa people. Generations have been displaced, voices drowned, and promises broken. And now, one man walks with bleeding feet and unwavering resolve, to make the voice of millions heard in the capital.

David Murasing is not alone. Behind him walks the soul of a people. His QR code, shared along the way, isn’t just a donation link — it is an invitation. An invitation to every Indian who still believes in the Constitution, in justice, in equality. An invitation to stand for something larger than self.

The Nation Watches. The Soil Waits.

From every village in Tripura to the bustling streets of Delhi, eyes are now on David. What will the Centre do? Will they recognize the pain of the Tiprasa people, or continue to turn a blind eye? Will they listen to a memorandum written in blood?

This march is a challenge to conscience. As David Murasing moves forward, blistered but brave, the soil beneath his feet seems to whisper:
"How many more miles before I am heard?"

And the world watches — waiting, hoping, demanding.
