Agartala, Nov. 23 -- Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha on Sunday said that unity in diversity is one of the hallmarks of India. He said that despite the diversity among the states of the North-Eastern region, there is a strong bond of unity.

"The unity between the different states of the country is maintained through the exchange of culture and tradition," he said while inaugurating the newly constructed pucca temple house of Puthiba Devta Bari in Abhaynagar, Agartala.

It is worth noting that the government has spent Rs 74 lakh on the construction of the temple's pucca building.

On the occasion, the Chief Minister said that the culture and traditions of the Manipuris are very ancient and form an integral part of the country's history....
