Expressing his delight, Arif Mohammad emphasized the importance of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's gesture, as approximately 500 kilograms of mangoes were sent to Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha, reported Northeast Today.

"The mangoes have been received through the Agartala-Akhaura Integrated Check Post, and we will make every effort to deliver them to the esteemed Chief Minister today.

This act not only brings joy but also serves as a poignant reminder of the deep-rooted relationship between Tripura and Bangladesh," stated Arif Mohammad, the official from the Bangladesh embassy.
