Manik Saha, a dental surgeon-turned-politician, took oath as the 13th Tripura chief minister for the second time at Vivekananda Stadium.
Governor Satyadev Narian Araya administered the oath of office and secrecy to Saha as well as eight other ministers.
TIPRA Motha won 13 of the 20 tribal-reserved seats and emerged as the main opposition, pushing aside 50-year-old dominant CPM as well as Congress. Both CPM and Congress had a seat-sharing deal to fight against BJP.
Saha was re-elected from the Town Bordowali seat for the second time after defeating his nearest Congress opponent Ashish Kumar Saha by a margin of 1,257 votes.
Manik Saha was first elected to the state Assembly in the by-poll held in June last year by defeating Ashish Kumar Saha by a margin of 6,104 votes.
Saha had first become the CM in May last year after incumbent CM Biplab Kumar Deb had to step down following massive opposition against him within the party.
