CM lays foundation stone for extension of Tripura Bhavan in New Delhi

Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha on Monday laid the foundation stone for the Extension Project of Tripura Bhavan at Bir Tikendrajit Marg. Under this project, six rooms and two hall rooms will be constructed, with an estimated cost of Rs 2.95 crore.

The foundation-laying ceremony was graced by the presence of the  Deputy Speaker of the Tripura Legislative Assembly,  Ramprasad Pal; Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament, Rajib Bhattacharjee; Minister for Social Welfare Tinku Roy; Minister for Higher Education Kishor Barman; Minister for Industries and Commerce Santana Chakma; Minister for Tribal Welfare, Bikash Debbarma; Minister for Scheduled Caste Welfare,  Sudhangshu Das; MLA Bhagaban Das; CRC Manoj Kumar; along with several other distinguished dignitaries.

"This will strengthen Tripura Bhavan's infrastructure and enhance facilities for our people visiting the national capital for medical facilities, education, cultural and business purposes. We are committed to modern and efficient infrastructure for Viksit Tripura," said the Chief Minister.

The chief minister, who went to Delhi on Sunday, met BJP national working president Nitin Nabin at the party headquarters.

"Met BJP national working president Nitin Nabin ji in New Delhi on Sunday evening. Held detailed discussions on organisational matters and our state government's development initiatives under the visionary leadership of PM Narendra Modi ji," he said in a social media post.

Despite successfully carrying out organizational elections in the Northeastern state, the BJP state unit could not pick its new president, prompting the central leadership to request the incumbent president Rajib Bhattacharjee, who is also Rajya Sabha MP, to continue. Dr Saha said he also extended an invitation to Nabin to visit the state.
