The Location: Tripura is located in the southwest North Eastern Region. The State is connected with Guwahati, by National Highway (NH-44) the distance between Guwahati and Agartala being about 587 km. The distance of Agartala from Siliguri (which is considered the entry point to the North East) is about 1065 km. Agartala is now connected by Railway Line and the same is being extended upto Sabroom, the southern-most part of Tripura. The conversion of meter gauge to broad gauge is under process and train service presently suspended for gauge conversion. The State Capital, Agartala is also well-connected by Air to Kolkata, Delhi, Mumbai, Guwahati and other North Eastern cities. Agartala Airport is the second busiest Airport in the North East, after Guwahati. A significant aspect of Tripura s location is that the State has about 856 Km long international border with Bangladesh, which is about 84% of the total perimeter of the State. Most of the important cities of Bangladesh (including Dhaka) are within 150 km distance of the town in Tripura. The direct distance between Agartala (Tripura) and Kolkata (through Bangladesh) is only about 350 Km. MSME-DI, Agartala Annual Progress Report 2014-15 5
The Land: Tripura is among the smaller State in the North Eastern Region, with a total area of about 10486.00 Sq. Km. only, out of which about 60% area is hilly and forested. The cultivated area is about 27% only. The State gets fairly high annual rainfall of about 250 cm, well spread over the year. The People: The State has a total population of about 36.7 lakhs (2011 census), which is the 2nd highest in the North Eastern Region, after Assam. The average density of population is also fairly high, at 350 persons per sq. km, particularly considering the fact that 60% of the area being forested and hilly is sparsely populated. The literacy rate in the State is 94.65% which is much higher than the national average and highest in the country. The State has a good social infrastructure in terms of educational and health institutions. The main languages spoken in the State are Bangla, Hindi and English. The Economy: The State has good agro-climatic conditions, suitable for a large variety of Agro/ Horti. crops. Further, industrial development has also picked up over the past few years. In fact, during the last decade, the State has recorded impressive growth rates. The Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) growth rate was 10.50% during 1999-2000 to 2007-08. The Secondary sector share in Gross State Domestic Product has risen from 14.12% to 22.59% during 1999-2000 to 2007-08. The per capita income of the State rose from Rs. 50175 in 2011-12 to Rs. 55004 in 2012-13. Others : At the time of Tripura's merger with effect from October 15, 1949 with the Indian Union, the major mode of farming was shifting cultivation or 'jhum', which produced little surplus. A small proportion of the plain lands of the State were under settled agriculture undertaken by Bengalis, and the main crop was rice. Most of the plain lands of the State were not under cultivation and were covered with cane-brakes and marshes. Thus at the time of formation of the State, the economy was predominantly agricultural and forest-based, with no industrial base, a low level of urbanization and limited infrastructure. MSME-DI, Agartala Annual Progress Report 2014-15 6
For administrative convenience and decentralization of power Tripura which had once been a single district only is now divided into altogether eight districts, twenty three subdivisions and forty five rural development blocks. Besides, a special feature of the state is the vibrant existence of an Autonomous District Council (ADC) for tribal s based on 6th schedule of the Indian constitution. The ADC in Tripura encompasses 68.10% of the state's total geographical territory and is home to roughly one third of the state's population. MSME-DI, Agartala Annual Progress Report 2014-15 7
