Tripura Student’s Death in Uttarakhand Sparks Outrage, Calls for National Protection

Agartala, December 29, 2025 – The death of Angel Chakma, a student from Tripura, following an assault in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, has ignited protests and demands for greater protection for students from Northeast India.

The Tripura Chakma Students Association held a press conference Sunday, appealing to the central government to intervene after the death of Angel Chakma from injuries sustained in an assault in Dehradun. Protests, including candlelight marches, erupted in Agartala following the death.

Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha has spoken with his Uttarakhand counterpart, Pushkar Singh Dhami, who assured a thorough investigation and justice in the case. Dr. Saha is scheduled to visit the victim’s family near Agartala.

Tripura police are in contact with authorities in Uttarakhand. Five people have been arrested out of six wanted in connection to the Chakma’s death.

Leaders of the Chakma Students Association voiced serious concerns about the safety of students from the Northeast, citing frequent incidents of violence and harassment. They are urging the government to implement stricter laws against hate crimes and derogatory comments targeting people from the region.

The student organization warned that inaction could lead to “serious repercussions.” They are organizing a candlelight march in Agartala today and will submit a memorandum to Chief Minister Saha on Tuesday, demanding severe punishment for the perpetrators and compensation for the family from both the Tripura and Uttarakhand governments.

Pradyot Kishore Manikya, founder of Tipra Motha, has also condemned the murder and pledged to continue fighting for justice for the victim.

Last rites for Angel Chakma were performed in Agartala on Saturday.
