Venkaiah Naidu reaches Agartala, lays foundation of road conversion project

Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu, who is on a tour of Northeast states, visited Agartala Wednesday and virtually laid the foundation of a conversion project of 15 major roads of Agartala smart city. Under the project, the roads will be converted to weather-resilient ones.

While speaking on the occasion, he warned the government of three ‘D’s — Dilution, Deviation and Derailment — and also spoke on corruption.

Naidu said he is visiting Northeast to feel the ground realities of development happening in these cities. He said the Centre is focusing on NE states and funds have already been doubled.
