Agartala: Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha praised the engineers and said that
they play a crucial role in implementing infrastructural projects and various
state government initiatives.
CM Saha was speaking at the 55th Annual General Conference of the State
Engineers’ Association.
“Engineers play a crucial role in implementing infrastructural development and
various plans of the state government. Today, I attended the 55th Annual General
Conference of State Engineers Association, Tripura, one of the key organizations
of engineers, at Nazrul Kalakshetra and addressed its members,” the CM wrote in
a post on X on Monday.
He further congratulated the engineers for their commendable service and
contributions to the state’s progress.
“I would like to extend my congratulations to the members for their commendable

He also encouraged engineers to seek training opportunities abroad, enhance
their skills, and implement them in the state’s development projects.
Earlier on Friday, CM Manik Saha said that drone technology can boost employment
and productivity in multiple sectors, including agriculture, security, power
services, wildlife conservation, disaster management, and healthcare in remote
areas.
He was addressing the inaugural ceremony of SKILL-UDAY TONGNAI, a skill
development programme to empower students, at TIT, Narsingarh, Agartala.
Addressing the event, Saha said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi, under the Act
East Policy, emphasized that India cannot develop unless the Northeast develops.
“We have seen the condition of the Northeast, where issues like terrorism and
kidnapping were prevalent for a long time. After Narendra Modi took charge as
Prime Minister, he presented a HIRA model for the Northeast region, bringing
significant developments such as six national highways to Tripura, internet
connectivity, and rail connectivity. People returning to the state after a long
period are often shocked to see how much Tripura has changed. As many as 12 MoUs
have been signed in the Northeast region to ensure lasting peace. Without peace,
development is not possible,” said Saha. (ANI)
