AGARTALA, March 14 (TIWN): There only 5 companies which are working in PPP model in Tripura.

The 5 companies have been  identified as : 1) Winmark Diagnostic Centre, Kolkata; (MRI and CI Scan at GBP Hospital). 2) Dr. Arbind Lal, New Delhi; (Dr. Lal Path Lab P B Das Memorial Diagnostic Centre, Agartala), 3) Winmark Diagnostic Centre, Kolkata; (CT Scan at Dist Hospital, Dharmanagar), 4) Bengal Institute of Paramedical Sciences (BIPS), Kolkata; (Tripura Institute of Para Medical Science at Hapania).

In Industry sector one company as 'Infrastructure & Financial Services (IL & FS), CDI, New Delhi, (Tripura Bamboo Mission at R K Nagar).

It's worthy to mention here that whereas Tripura CM rubbished the PPP Model, calling it’s a bogus policy, on the ending of 3 day long Industry Summit Experts ended by preferring Private Business Policy.

In September, after 3 day long discussion about NE Connectivity it has been disclosed that NE region needs to upgrade more and more in a faster manner to settle down industries here.

Chief Minister Manik Sarkar in the 1st 2 days delivered speeches at the summit organized at Prgana Bhawan by FICCI. However, CM’s speech was enough controversial as he talked about Anti-Capitalism & hitting the Act East Policy, whereas the programme was focused on Act East Policy.

On the 2nd day of the summit, Bangladesh Industry Minister also attended and Act East Policy was main focus of discussion & how to utilize the Act East Policy was discussed in these 3 days.

Bangladesh Industry Minister Amir Hossain Amu thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his dynamic role & his historic visit in 2015 which joined the two countries with MoUs.

However, at the end of the session, the experts said digitally, technically Northeast lagging behind & hurriedly the region needs to develop & “This is the time for Development”.

Moreover, experts also prefers the private enterprises interference in developing Northeast. 

CPI-M doesn’t prefer privatization in any work, but the NE summit has proven, without private interference Govt can not run a developing state.
