Tripura’s development landscape transformed Friday as Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia inaugurated and flagged off eight projects amounting to Rs 365 crore. Prioritizing connectivity, eco-tourism, clean energy, and indigenous welfare, these efforts align with a broader vision for regional empowerment.
Declaring the Northeast as India’s growth engine per PM Modi’s ‘Ashtalakshmi’ ethos, Scindia underscored the shift from isolation to integration.
Rs 270 crore in deliverables feature the 13.775 km Jatanbari-Mandirghat-Tirthamukh road and 28.90 km Erarpar-Ambas a upgrade, facilitating efficient access to education, health, and trade hubs for invigorated local markets.
Tribal integration advances through the 8 km Gandachera-Raishyabari-Narikel Kunja connector, enhancing service reach and social equity.
The Amarpur-Chhabimura upgrade spotlights Tripura’s cultural treasures—rock engravings and verdant trails—poised to draw tourists and uplift artisan communities.
Solar micro-grids via PM-DEVINE will illuminate forgotten hamlets, fortifying education, wellness, and entrepreneurial pursuits with green power.
New Rs 95 crore road foundations—Kowaiprung-Karbuk (9.10 km), Jampui-Kangrai, Burighat-Serumun-II—promise resilient networks for hilly interiors.
With Rs 6.5 lakh crore infused over 12 years and 10% budgets ringfenced, the Northeast surges ahead. Scindia commended CM Manik Saha’s role in this synergy-driven ascent, positioning Tripura as a model of progress.
