He also noted that the ongoing Smart City Mission had already provided around Rs 5 billion to their state, leading to numerous developments, and he planned to discuss with their leaders in Delhi the initiation of Smart City 2.0, akin to AMRUT 2.0, to ensure continued development. He added that visitors from outside Tripura had been impressed by the state's progress. "Tripura has seen significant improvements in law and order and overall development," Dr. Saha said.

He called on everyone to maintain cleanliness, highlighting that previously, there had been no significant effort in maintaining these water bodies. He reiterated their goal to focus on development without politicising it and highlighted the memorable impact of PM Modi's development work on the people.
