Under Sarkar's able chief ministership Tripura has seen its first dose of foreign funding
China has agreed to provide technology to set up bamboo-based industries and livelihood opportunities to farmers and the state’s tribal communities, while the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) is providing Rs.3.66 billion as a soft loan to the state. "Germany will also provide Rs.1.12 billion for ecological conservation projects and development of livelihood resources for tribals and other forest dwellers," the chief minister said.
Tripura''s per capita annual income was only Rs.534 when it attained statehood in 1972 and the figure rose to Rs.20,357 in the last economic survey conducted in 2004. People living below the poverty line came down from 68% to 55% during the past eight years under Sarkar. “The System of Rice Intensification (SRI) technology for paddy cultivation has increased productivity of rice from 2.5 tonnes per hectare to about 3.5 tonnes per hectare in the state,” Sarkar proudly says.
Most of all, though, it’s his personal integrity that his people like to speak about. “As chief minister, Sarkar receives a monthly salary of Rs.9,200 and subsidiary allowance of Rs.1,200 per month and these amounts he donates to the party fund, like other partymen,” said Gautam Das, the state spokesman of the CPI(M).
