Tripura Congress to Block Agartala–Kamalpur Highway on July 23 Over Poor Road Conditions

The Tripura Congress has announced that it will block the Agartala–Kamalpur section of National Highway 44 on July 23 to draw attention to the road’s poor condition. The party said the highway, which connects the state capital Agartala with the town of Kamalpur, has seen frequent potholes and erosion that have made travel hazardous. The protest is expected to disrupt traffic for several hours, according to local transport officials. The party’s spokesperson urged state authorities to undertake immediate repairs and to improve maintenance of the national highway. The blockade is part of a broader campaign by the Congress to pressure the state government into addressing infrastructure deficits.
