Tripura has inaugurated its first tea auction centre in Agartala to improve local tea marketing and reduce expenses. The new facility aims to shorten the time required to sell tea consignments by about 40 percent.

The establishment of the auction centre is expected to facilitate better coordination between sellers and buyers." name="description">window.pageLoadStarted = (new Date()).getTime().
