Ahmedabad, Oct 27 (IANS) A delegation from the Tripura Assembly has left for Gujarat on a five-day study tour to inspect the state’s development initiatives and citizen welfare measures.
On the first day of the visit, the delegation visited key areas of Ahmedabad including Sabarmati Riverfront, Atal Bridge, ISKCON Temple and Ashram Road.

Gujarat has emerged as one of India’s most progressive states, driven by a model that combines rapid industrial growth with inclusive social welfare.
The state government has implemented large-scale infrastructure projects such as GIFT City, Sabarmati Riverfront and Dholera Smart City along with initiatives in renewable energy, skill development and e-governance. Through programs like Mukhyamantri Amritam Yojana, Mission Mangalam and Kanya Kelavani, it focuses on health, women empowerment and education.
Rural development has been strengthened through irrigation schemes such as the Sauni Yojana and water conservation campaigns such as the Sujalam Sufalam Jal Abhiyan, while urban areas have benefited from smart cities and public transport upgrades.
Gujarat is also a leader in solar and wind energy, tourism infrastructure and digital citizen services, establishing itself as a model for balanced, sustainable and people-centric governance in India.
Gujarat is focusing on innovation-driven development with a citizen-first approach. The state’s emphasis on ease of doing business, modern infrastructure and social equality has created a strong ecosystem for investment and welfare.
