Additionally, the state government is planning to establish a Homeopathic College and an Ayurvedic College in Tripura.

During his speech, the Chief Minister praised the role of local clubs in the state, emphasizing their contribution to society through various service-oriented programs.

Dr. Saha urged the clubs to take further initiatives and extend support to the public through various programs related to public welfare. He appreciated the efforts of the Jubasamaj Club and emphasized the importance of collective action in making Tripura drug-free and a peaceful place to live.
