Manik Saha, the Chief Minister of Tripura, announced that rail communication with Bangladesh will commence from Agartala this year. He mentioned that significant changes have occurred in the North Eastern states since Narendra Modi assumed office as the Prime Minister in 2014.

Funding from the central government has been allocated for the modernisation of three railway stations in Tripura: Udaipur Railway Station, Kumarghat Railway Station, and Dharmanagar Railway Station.
