Jishnu Devvarma, the convener of state BJP’s Janajati Morcha or tribal unit, is part of Tripura’s erstwhile royal family and known to have a sizeable following among the state’s indigenous population. However, he is not yet a legislator. Elections in his constituency, Charilam, were postponed because of the death of the Left candidate. The 59-year-old Mr Devvarma is the uncle of king Pradyot Kishore Manikya, who is the working president of a beleaguered Congress in Tripura.
