[edit] relation of tripura with rest of india
As mentioned in the article it is true that tripura was incorporated "officially" into india after the independence of india, but the northeast of india was always a part of india just like other parts of india. we should not forget the traditions and cultures which bind all the states of india inspite of the diversity.Borders don't decide integrity,hearts does.
William R. Glad of Norway I understand what is said. I would also like to know a little about the royal family. Whos is the "present" maharaja emeritus - eventually his follower? I went to school in Shillong in the late forties-early fifties and was aware of the family, but never came in contakt. (I was a norwegian boy in an norwegian boradringschool - almost dayly looking at the princess of Triupurawas driven to school. She never stoped the car by the norwegian boradring school and invited me to tea. My childhoods great sorrow. So I am as an old man i Norway interestet in this family.
I must add: I visited Shillong march 2006 and confrimed my love to this state, but has never been to Tripura. Is this still possible??

[edit] Demographics
The "demographics" section had no information on the culture of 70% of the state (the Bengali and Manipuri communities), and so I added that information. Of course, most of the information in that section deals with the tribal communities, as they are unique to the state, but there should at least be a mention of the majority ethnic groups. Someone deleted my addition, but I added it again in a slightly reworded fashion. Please let me know if there is a way I can re-reword it if needed. --SameerKhan 09:15, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
