He added that โ€œTripura was once used to be recognized as a hotbed of political violence and insurgency.โ€

โ€œThe situation has changed now. Now Tripura is emerging as a gateway of South East Asia. It has drawn huge investment in the form of infrastructure development. The state is heading towards a bright future,โ€ said Nadda.

Slamming the Left parties, he said, โ€œThe regime of CPIM was like dark days. The shadow of that past could be felt till today but people have rejected them thoroughly and conclusively.โ€
