Tripura is one of the most peaceful states in the country and the Northeast. The state has a vast reserve of natural gas, resulting in power surpluses. Tripura’s economy is primarily driven by agriculture and related industries. The state has launched an ambitious vision document called Lakshya 2047. "We are among the better-performing states in the North East, with significant improvements in key economic indicators. The estimated per capita income has risen substantially, and the GSDP has grown significantly, ranking as the second highest in the North East," he added.
