Chief Minister Manik Saha took a significant step in enhancing Tripura’s public infrastructure and service delivery as he virtually inaugurated six significant development projects from the Baijalbari Higher Secondary School Ground in Khowai district. These initiatives, which are being carried out in the administrative, educational, and health sectors, demonstrate the government’s ongoing dedication to sustainable and inclusive development in rural and semi-urban areas. The Block Public Health Unit (BPHU) and MOIC Room at Mungiakami Primary Health Centre (PHC), which were built on the first floor at a cost of Rs 2.64 crore, are two of the recently opened projects.
The building, which has a plinth area of 187.47 square meters and was finished in a week in August 2024, was constructed under the 15th Finance Commission Health Grant approved by the National Health Mission (NHM) for 2024–2025. Similarly, a new BPHU was opened at Tulashikhar PHC’s Tulashikhar R D Block. The project, which was finished in October 2024 and was also funded by the 15th FC Health Grant, cost Rs 2.54 crore and had a first-floor area of 175.10 square meters, according to a government release.
The opening of a two-story classroom at Metharai Reang Bari Higher Secondary School, which is part of Teliamura RD Block, was another significant event in the education sector. At a cost of more than Rs 21.18 crore, this classroom block, which was funded by Samagra Shiksha (2021–2022), was finished in February 2024 and expanded the school’s infrastructure by 302.75 square meters on the ground floor and 276.00 square meters on the first floor.
