Statistics
According to a census published by the association in 2023, it claimed 84,795 members in 943 churches.[8]
The state government of Tripura accused the organization of lending support to separatist NLFT rebels.[10]
The Government of Tripura uncovered evidence asserting that the Baptist Church in Tripura had been helping Tripuri militants, such as the NLFT in the state. The NLFT militants, who are involved in armed struggle for the independence of Tripura, and the creation of a "Christian state",[11] have been forcing local tribals to convert to Christianity at gunpoint and threatening to murder participants in Hindu festivals.[10][12][13] It is believed that as many as 5,000 tribal villagers were converted in this fashion over two years.[12] These forcible conversions to Christianity, sometimes including the use of "rape as a means of intimidation," have also been noted by academics outside of India.[14]
The government accused the Baptist Church of Tripura for supporting this violent campaign of NLFT by providing funding and arms for the group. In April 2000, Nagmanlal Halam, Secretary of the Noapara Baptist Church in Tripura, was caught with a large quantity of explosives which were meant for the group. Halam later confessed to buying and supplying explosives to the NLFT for the past two years. Another church official, Jatna Koloi, was arrested in south Tripura in April 2000. According to the State Police, Mr Koloi had received training in guerrilla warfare at an NLFT base in 1999.[10]
