Tripura CM to launch State Innovative Mission at the International Exhibition Centre in Agartala

AGARTALA: Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha on Thursday launched the State Innovative Mission at the International Exhibition Centre and inaugurated the T-Nest (Tripura: Nurturing and Entrepreneurship Startup), in Agartala.

The program centred on the State Innovation Mission and T-Nest is a joint initiative of Atal Innovation Mission-NITI Aayog, Good Governance and Information Technology Department, and the Government of Tripura.

The initiative aims to promote innovation-driven development in the state by encouraging new ideas, technological advancement, and institutional collaboration. The launch is expected to mark a significant step toward strengthening Tripura's growth in emerging sectors and fostering a culture of innovation.

Senior government officials, stakeholders, and representatives from various sectors participated in the event.

Speaking to ANI, Saha said, "This State Innovation Mission was very necessary for us. Tripura is the first state in India to start a mission of this kind. I believe this is crucial for a place like Tripura. As we look at the 'Act East Policy' mentioned by the Honourable Prime Minister, I feel it is now becoming 'Act East Tripura.' The Prime Minister has provided significant support and facilities for development in Tripura, including the 'HIRA Model' (Highways, Internet, Railways, and Airways). Following that vision, this new mission has been launched. It will be immensely beneficial for our youth. Many of our talented young people used to leave the state despite having great capacity and skill. This mission, along with the focus on startups, will provide them with the necessary logistics support right from the school and college levels." (ANI)
