Encouraging more domestic and international tourists to visit Tripura, Governor Nallu said "I would encourage all tourists, both domestic and international, to visit Tripura. This state offers beautiful sights for tourism, with stunning locations suitable for film shoots, access to rivers, and scenic hills.
