History

Mizoram Presbyterian Church Synod Meeting in 1985 finally gave its consent to officially begin Presbyterian Church of Tripura (PCT) within Tripura State. June 1986 Synod Executive Committee then sent Senior Pastor Rev. Thangdela to administer the whole Presbyterian Church of Tripura whose office was stationed at Noagang. Subsequently, Presbyterian Church of Tripura Inauguration Service was undertaken by Synod Moderator Rev. Robawiha at Noagang Church on July 20, 1986. 1988 Synod conference assigned Tripura mission be under the administration of Synod Mission Board. On December 19, 1987, Mizo Synod and Tripura Baptist Christian Union (TBCU) made an agreement as to how the two churches will go on side by side. The Synod Mission Board (SMB), which represents Mizo Synod, after all, became so successful to spread the Gospel of Christ in Tripura Mission Field.[2]
