    The Tipra Motha has 13 MLAs in the 60-member assembly and is likely to get two berths, the leader said.

    “The Tipra Motha is set to join the BJP-IPFT coalition government before the Parliamentary elections. The date for swearing in of the ministers has not been finalised yet,” state BJP president Rajib Bhattacharjee said.
