The Maitre Setu, a
bridge over the river Feni connecting Tripura with Chittagong seaport of
Bangladesh is likely to be operational for passenger movement in August this
year, a senior official of the state government said after CM Manik Saha
inspected the ongoing work on Saturday 18 March.
The construction of the bridge
was completed two years ago, but the road development work
on the Bangladesh side at Ramgarh towards the seaport has not yet been
finished. Similarly, the infrastructure development for the logistics hub and
SEZ in Sabroom of South Tripura were also not made operational.
The officials said the arrangements for the loading
and unloading of cargo shipments on the Tripura side have already been made
