Tripura is emerging as an educational hub, attracting students from outside the state, said CM Dr. Manik Saha at a recent award ceremony. With new institutions and the implementation of the National Education Policy, the state is prioritizing quality education and holistic student development.
Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha today said that the state government is working with special priority to improve the quality of the education system.
“Many educational institutions have now been established in the state in the field of higher education. Students are now coming from outside to study in Tripura. And to increase their responsibility towards society, students should get involved in social work,” said Dr. Saha.
Dr. Saha said this at the Bhupendra Chandra Dutta Bhowmik Merit-cum-Means Award – 2025 program organized at Muktadhara Auditorium in Agartala today.
At the program, the Chief Minister said that it is not possible to develop a state or country if the benefits of various people-oriented projects do not reach the last person of society.
“I sincerely thank the organizers for organizing the merit award ceremony here today. Along with the government, you are also making efforts for the welfare of society. Others will also be inspired by seeing you in this great work of social service,” he said.
The Chief Minister said that the people of Tripura know journalist Bhupendra Chandra Dutta Bhowmik.
“He is a name for the state. He established himself in a very short time through his sharp writing. He had the trust of many people. He has created a foundation in the field of journalism in Tripura,” said Dr. Saha.
The Chief Minister said education is necessary and is important in any subject.
“The journey of education will continue for ages. Education should be taken in combination with study and experience. Success cannot be achieved by acquiring only textbook knowledge. Many people cannot achieve success in life even after getting good results in exams. Education has no end. Education is endless. Education acts as a bridge between ignorance and knowledge, and between darkness and light. The more knowledge one has, the more he will be in touch with the ground. Our famous Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also given special importance to education,” said Dr. Saha.
The Chief Minister also said that the National Education Policy has been introduced in the country due to the Prime Minister’s tireless efforts.
