On May 22, 2025, Tripura's Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Minister, Ratanlal Nath, initiated several significant development projects in the Gomati district, focusing on enhancing rural infrastructure and empowering the farming community, particularly in the Matabari assembly constituency.
A major highlight was the laying of the foundation stone for a modern market stall at Kalaban Bazar under the Matabari Agriculture Sub-Division. Supported by the Agriculture Department, this ₹2.20 crore project aims to provide improved marketing infrastructure and facilities, significantly benefiting local farmers and traders.
In a parallel development, Minister Nath participated in a mega awareness camp held in Garji under the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana. This centrally sponsored scheme promotes the use of solar energy in rural households to reduce electricity costs and promote sustainable energy practices. The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from local residents, highlighting the region’s growing interest in renewable energy.
Furthering the goal of agricultural modernization, Nath also laid the foundation for the Matabari Agri Development Research-cum-Training Centre. This upcoming facility will focus on equipping farmers with modern farming techniques, computer literacy, and video conferencing capabilities for enhanced learning and collaboration.
Minister Nath emphasized that these infrastructure projects represent a significant step in strengthening the agricultural ecosystem of Tripura and underline the government’s commitment to rural development and farmer welfare through technological and institutional support.
