“A new national education policy has been prepared in the country so that the students can move forward with the traditional knowledge,” he said, adding that the state government is working on various plans including infrastructure development to provide quality education to the students.
He said, “Parents should give importance to students' trust in the school education system by reducing their dependence on private tuition. Besides studies, sports should also be given importance by the students.”

Tripura has many public and private educational institutions including colleges, universities, dental colleges and based on these, the state government is working to build an education hub in the state,” he said.
