Tripura adopts two-day weekend for offices to curb fuel use

Wait 5 sec.

Tripura government has launched an austerity drive. All government offices will now be closed on Saturdays and Sundays. Working hours on weekdays are extended. These steps aim to reduce electricity and fuel consumption. The government is also promoting virtual meetings and the use of electric and CNG vehicles. These measures follow Prime Minister Modi's appeal for fuel conservation.
