AGARTALA, Nov 17 (TIWN): The highest commodity price of Tripura has been termed by opposition MLA Ratan Lal Nath as a way to loot 'public money' in the name of central deprivation'. Unveiling the commodity remarks of various states, where Tipura tops, Nath said, "As per the February month's Assembly Session's data of Finance Minister Bhanulal Saha in 2012, Tripura's price index was highest with 177, whereas in 2013 it was 2nd with Price index-194, in 2014 and 2015 also Tripura was either in 1st or in second position. Thus putting blames upon the Modi Govt for demonetization or GST behind price hike was a lie by the CPI-M Govt as it has maintained an unbreakable record of highest prices of commodities". Tripura CM generally lectures how to develop the economy of the country and how to increase the country made source of income with example of Russia, Cuba, Syria etc.

 But evicting Make-In-India project, under Tripura Govt the business has turned fully dependent on exported items from outside.

Tripura’s slow GDP growth rate which has left the state without development, day by day its increasing the unemployment rate here in the state, whereas due to lack of Industrialization public's source of income has remained very slow but yet the state govt is not ready to adopt any private partner policy.

Public-private partnership (PPP) is a funding model for a public infrastructure project such as a new telecommunications system, airport or power plant, which has brought success in many states. The public partner is represented by the government at a local, state and/or national level, but Tripura Govt who instead of massive failure in industrialization, is not ready to adopt the PPP model and ended by saying, “…..it’s a bogus policy!”

Due to lack of industry it’s generating huge number of unemployed youths in state? Among 36 lakhs of its population as per govt record there are  7 lakhs unemployed youths who have entered names in Employment-registers. Apart from that the unofficial unemployed rate is touching almost the population number.
