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.
