Chief Minister Manik Saha of Tripura distributed livelihood toolkits to Bru community members who have completed a government‑run skill‑training program, aiming to boost self‑employment in the tribal group.
Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha handed over a set of self‑employment toolkits to members of the Bru (Rohingya) community who recently completed a state‑sponsored skill‑development course. The distribution took place in a public ceremony attended by local officials and community leaders.
The toolkits contain basic equipment and materials required for small‑scale enterprises such as tailoring, handicrafts and food processing, sectors identified as viable for the Bru population. Officials said the initiative is part of the government's broader effort to integrate the displaced community into the state's economy and reduce dependence on welfare schemes.
State authorities expect that the trained beneficiaries will start micro‑businesses within the next few weeks, creating income opportunities for their families and contributing to local markets. Monitoring mechanisms will be put in place to assess the impact of the program over the coming months.
