One thought on “Government sincere about development of northeast: PM Narendra Modi

  • I m possible

    Would request PM to help bring ray of hope for lakhs of educated unemployed youths. This can be done only through bringing IT industries and making Agartala (just like Hyderabad, Pune or Bangalore ) one of the best cities to pursue career opportunities in IT and high end sector, which would bring creams of country to live and work in Agartala, thus pushing state’s economy.

    Policies should be made for fast track economic growth of Northeast cities like Agartala. Currently this beautiful city has been bogged down by incompetency, ,lackluster attitude, backdated approach, anti growth mindset, nepotism favoring, corruption – by the ruling leadership and administration.

    How India’s GDP can grow when Northeast cities like Agartala continues to remain economically backward ? Left ruled Agartala has become 3rd Internet gateway and with a lameduck leadership unwilling and having poor understanding of Industry and technology, Tripura and its Youth’s future have been continuously ruined leaving a record 25.2% (highest in India) unemployment.

    It has been a long wait for Tripura and its youths who have been suffering everyday from chronic unemployment and concerned folks are just happy to mint Govt salary month after month with an excuse of unemployment is throughout country or no infrastructure. At whose cost please ?

    With a record (highest in India) 25.2% of unemployment Left ruled Tripura continues to bite dust of under-development and non-performance due to state’s outdated policies of being anti development and industry without realizing world and India’s economy driven by Business and technology.

    So far it has been about Govt job, salary, subsidy – on tax payers money and mediocre plastic industry for name sake being the focus – which still fails to show hope to lakhs of educated unemployed youths!

    Urgent need is to bring high end industry and jobs at Agartala having follow up with Industry leaders and setting up required infrastructure on a war footing.

    With high speed internet and 24/7 power, Can capital Agartala look forward in 2016 to being an IT hub with high end IT jobs for 7 lakh educated unemployed youths of Trpiura ?.
