He held high-level talks with the National Dairy Development Board to overhaul the dairy industry back home. They want more milk. The minister aims to build modern infrastructure and boost farmer paychecks.
Das toured the NDDB OPU-IVF Centre, the Genomics Laboratory, the Fodder Plant, and various cattle farms. He examined new scientific practices for breeding and sustainable herd management. These facilities offer a blueprint for Tripura to grow its local supply chain through technology and innovation.
