Home Ministry officials visit Tripura to review projects
Bangladesh has not made much progress in the construction of a road to connect the highway linking the Chittagong sea port with the India- Bangladesh Friendship Bridge (Maitri Setu) over the Feni river in south Tripura. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had virtually inaugurated the bridge on March 9, the day Tripura’s incumbent BJP-led coalition government completed three years in office. A team from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) recently inspected the bridge, the ongoing work on the Integrated Check Post (ICP) and the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) at Sabroom and enquired about the progress of construction of the road in Khagrachhari district of Bangladesh that will ultimately connect the Chittagong sea port, just 100 km from Agartala.More Related News
