In order to encourage international business in Tripura, the BJP-led government has planned to construct 2,200 flats and an international shopping mall at Agartala.
Tripura chief minister Biplab Kumar Deb said this while addressing the programme ‘Aangikaar – A campaign for change management’ at Agartala Town Hall.
Informing about the ANGIKAR programme on his Twitter handle on Thursday, chief minister Deb said, “Delighted to inaugurate State Level ANGIKAAR programme, organised by Urban Development Department at Agartala Town Hall today with other dignitaries of #Tripura.”
“Discussed wide range of issues related to Urban Development of Tripura for the convenience of people of our State,” he added.
The objective of the ‘Angikaar’ campaign is to bring the beneficiaries of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Urban (PMAY-U) under one fold of other central government implemented schemes.
