I am pleased to announce that our government intends to constitute soon five new Cultural and Development Boards for the Munda (ST), Kora (ST), Dom (SC), Kumbhakar (OBC) and Sadgope (OBC) communities.
These communities are integral to the vibrant fabric of Bengal. My heartiest congratulations to all of them.
These boards will protect their unique languages and traditions while ensuring better education, healthcare, and jobs. They will safeguard customary rights and bring further socio-economic growth.
Since 2013, we have established many such boards for our weaker communities, ensuring their all-round development.
Our commitment to Ma, Mati, Manush means, we remain dedicated to ensuring no community is left behind. Our goal is simple: to bring a smile to every face through inclusive progress and unwavering support.
Jai Bangla!
Mahatma Gandhi used to say that the moral worth of a society is revealed in the way it stands beside its most vulnerable.
That principle found clear affirmation in Nandigram, where twenty-three residents referred through Sebaashray underwent free cataract surgeries at Kalyani Eye Care, seventeen identified at Camp 1 and six at Camp 2.
For many, failing vision had meant restricted movement, reduced work, and a gradual withdrawal from daily life. This was not merely a medical procedure; it was the restoration of independence, confidence, and dignity. Healthcare cannot operate in fragments. It cannot stop at diagnosis or end with an announcement. It must guide a person from need to relief, from identification to full recovery.
Sebaashray was conceived with that continuity at its core, so that no citizen remains suspended between illness and care. That responsibility endures, and we remain committed to upholding it with seriousness and resolve.
Sebaashray 2 continues its journey with the core belief that no citizen should be denied care, dignity, or hope because of circumstance. Across our camps, people are receiving free consultations, health screenings, and essential medicines. And now, by restoring something as fundamental as sight, we are helping restore confidence, independence, and opportunity.
In Falta alone, 1,104 citizens received free spectacles as a gift of clearer days, safer work, and brighter tomorrows. For many, this means reclaiming everyday independence long denied by untreated vision loss. With the blessings of those we serve, Sebaashray will continue to walk this path, guided by the conviction that public service finds its highest purpose in improving lives.
Saddened by the demise of the famous journalist Mark Tully. The Calcutta-born newsman worked for BBC to cover India, and he famously loved India to embrace India. We saw him as one of our own.
My condolences to his family, friends and countless admirers.
বিজেপি-শাসিত ত্রিপুরার বর্তমান আইন-শৃঙ্খলা পরিস্থিতি দেখে আশঙ্কিত আমাদের প্রতিনিধি দল। শাসকদলের চাপে পুলিশের অসহায়তা নিয়েও আলোচনা প্রয়োজন। তাই আজ বিকেল ৪টে নাগাদ ত্রিপুরা পুলিশের ডিজি-র সাথে কথা বলতে চেয়ে চিঠি দিলেন আমাদের প্রতিনিধি দলের সদস্য তথা মাননীয়া সাংসদ সুস্মিতা দেব।
যখন সমাজে ন্যায় বিচারের জায়গায় ভয় জায়গা করে নেয়, তখন নাগরিক পরিষেবায় নিবেদিত প্রতিষ্ঠানগুলোর প্রতি আস্থা ফিরিয়ে আনা অত্যাবশ্যক—কারণ আইন রক্ষাকারী প্রতিষ্ঠানগুলি কোনও রাজনৈতিক দলের নয়, জনগণের।
