OTHER SECTORS
Tripura also offers excellent prospects for development of the
following types of industries:
Industries for producing goods having market in Bangladesh, even
if the raw material is to be brought from other states like Fabrics, light engineering
goods, electronic goods etc. This is because in view of the peculiar location of the
state, Bangladesh serves as the natural hinterland for Tripura products.
Forest based industries.
Electronics/ Computer Software industries Availability of
technically trained manpower in the state offers good prospects for such industries.
Transportation cost of raw material/finished goods is not a significant factor for such
units. ETDC (a Government of India undertaking under Department of Electronics) has also
set up a Centre at Agartala recently, which will provide the basic infrastructural support
for promotion of such industries.
