  This paper defines the partition algebra for complex reflection group
$G(r,p,n)$ acting on $k$-fold tensor product $(\mathbb{C}^n)^{\otimes k}$,
where $\mathbb{C}^n$ is the reflection representation of $G(r,p,n)$. A basis of
the centralizer algebra of this action of $G(r,p,n)$ was given by Tanabe and
for $p =1$, the corresponding partition algebra was studied by Orellana. We
also establish a subalgebra as partition algebra of a subgroup of $G(r,p,n)$
acting on $(\mathbb{C}^n)^{\otimes k}$. We call these algebras as Tanabe
algebras. The aim of this paper is to study representation theory of Tanabe
algebras: parametrization of their irreducible modules, and construction of
Bratteli diagram for the tower of Tanabe algebras. We conclude the paper by
giving Jucys-Murphy elements of Tanabe algebras and their actions on the
Gelfand-Tsetlin basis, determined by this multiplicity free tower, of
irreducible modules.
