Padma Lochan Tripura, a BJP MDC in Tripura, has urged the Tripura Tourism Development Corporation to develop Chandi Chara in Sepahijala District into a tourist destination. The area, rich in natural water bodies and dense forests, offers immense potential for activities such as boating, fishing, and bird watching.
Chandi Chara is renowned for its serene environment and diverse wildlife. The picturesque setting provides an ideal spot for eco-tourism. Tripura believes that with proper infrastructure and promotion, Chandi Chara can attract both domestic and international tourists. He emphasized the importance of leveraging the natural beauty of the area to boost the local economy and create job opportunities for residents.
The proposal includes the construction of boat docks, fishing zones, and bird-watching towers. Additionally, there are plans to improve accessibility to the area with better roads and transportation facilities. The development aims to preserve the natural habitat while making it more visitor-friendly.
Local communities have expressed support for the initiative, seeing it as a way to improve their livelihoods. Eco-friendly practices will be a cornerstone of the development plan to ensure the sustainability of the environment. Educational programs about the local ecosystem and conservation efforts will also be introduced to raise awareness among visitors.
The Sepahijala District is already known for its wildlife sanctuary, which attracts nature enthusiasts. Developing Chandi Chara as a tourist spot will complement existing attractions and offer a more comprehensive experience for visitors. It will also help distribute tourist footfall more evenly across the district, reducing pressure on the sanctuary.
Tripura’s call for developing Chandi Chara aligns with broader efforts to promote sustainable tourism in the state. The focus is on enhancing visitor experience while maintaining ecological balance. If the proposal is accepted, Chandi Chara could become a model for eco-tourism in the region, showcasing how natural beauty and modern amenities can coexist.
The Tripura Tourism Development Corporation is expected to review the proposal and conduct feasibility studies. With the right approach, Chandi Chara could soon emerge as a top tourist destination in Tripura, offering a peaceful retreat for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
