The formation of the INPT was pushed through after pressure from the underground National Liberation Front Of Tripura , who wanted to unite all tribal nationalist forces in a single party. The INPT is commonly seen as the political branch of NLFT. As IPFT had a majority in the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council , INPT came to govern that institution until 2003 .
