Tripura is now considered a leading state among the states of the North East: CM Manik Saha

AGARTALA: Tripura Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha on Saturday said that Tripura is now regarded as a leading state among the states of the North East, which marks the beginning of a new chapter of all-round development.

“Tripura is now considered a leading state among the states of the North East, whereas earlier it was regarded as a developing state. Additionally, Tripura has the second-highest GSDP in the North East. The state government is working towards development in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision,” he said while addressing an event celebrating Bihar Day at Albert Ekka Park in Agartala on Saturday.

The Chief Minister emphasized that people feel safe because of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “Today, he is driving the country’s development through infrastructure advancements. To ensure the nation’s progress, we must support the Bharatiya Janata Party and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The history of Bihar dates back centuries, and under the Prime Minister’s leadership, Tripura is now on the path of continuous development. Earlier, the North Eastern region was plagued by extremism, including kidnappings, murders, terrorism, and arson,” Dr. Saha said.

He further pointed out that Tripura endured 35 years of misrule under the Communist government.

“Without peace and order, no state can develop. Therefore, we are working towards ensuring a peaceful environment. The state’s per capita income has also increased significantly. Tripura is now recognized as a front-runner state, attracting a large number of investors from outside. Yesterday, we presented the budget in the assembly, proposing an allocation of over Rs 32,000 crore. A substantial portion has been earmarked for infrastructure development, as improving infrastructure is crucial to attracting people from outside,” he said.
