History
Tripura used to be a royal state before independence. As a revolt against the monarchic rule, the Ganamukti Parishad movement was launched. The movement was victorious and Tripura was integrated with India. It was heavily affected by partition and its population now consists of Bengalis (most of whom came as refugees from East Pakistan after independence) living side by side with the native tribal population.
