Pre-paid transport service resumes at Agartala airport

“The government enacts rules and policies to protect the interests of the people of the state. It is the duty of all to strictly follow these rules and principles. If there is any difficulty in this regard, the government and the department are sincerely trying to remove it.”

Transport Minister Sushanta Chowdhury said this after restarting the prepaid auto service from Maharaja Bir Bikram Airport on Tuesday.

It is to be noted that this prepaid auto service was closed for the last 6 months.
On the occasion, Transport Minister Sushanta Chowdhury said that a meeting was held yesterday with the representatives of the airport area including security, transport, airport authority and auto drivers to launch this prepaid auto service.

He added, “It was decided in the meeting that this service will be launched from today. Appropriate steps will be taken to continue this service in the coming days.

The government and the department will wholeheartedly support the auto workers in solving any kind of problems in keeping this service running.”

The Transport Minister appealed to the auto workers to ensure that this service is not stopped in any way. He also said that there are 280 auto drivers here.
