New Raj Bhawan building inaugurated by Governor Tathagata Roy

AGARTALA:

On the auspicious occasion of Akhshay Tritiya, Governor Tathagata Roy on Wednesday inaugurated the new Raj Bhawan at Agartala Capital Complex area near the secretariat building. First lady Anuradha Roy remained present during the inaugural ceremony.

CM Biplab Kumar Deb, DY CM Jishnu Debbarma along with other dignitaries also remained present in the inaugural program.

Inaugurating the new building, Roy stated that he sees a bright future of Tripura under the rule of CM Biplab kumar Deb. The tourism section should be developed for solving unemployment in the state.

The construction work for building the new Raj Bhawan was started from the month of May, 2014.

The state government  has decided to renovate the Puspavanta palace, as the former Governor of the state Tripura D Y Patil was keen to quit this "endangered building" vulnerable to earthquakes.

King Birendra Kishore Manikya (1909-1923) had built the Puspavanta palace in 1916 in accordance with the then architectural methods. Hence, it could not be made earthquake-resistance.

This has been identified as a heritage building not only because of its association with royalty but also because poet Rabindra Nath Tagore and other contemporary great personalities had stayed in Puspavanta palace as royal guests.
