Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday congratulated Manik Saha, who took oath as Tripura chief minister, as well as his team of ministers.

Modi was present during the swearing-in ceremony of Saha and his cabinet ministers in Agartala today (March 8).

"Congratulations to Dr. Manik Saha Ji and the entire team which took oath today. This team will certainly deliver on the mandate given by the people once again and add momentum to Tripura's development journey. My best wishes to them in their efforts," the Prime Minister noted.

Saha assumed office as chief minister of the state for the second time.

In separate tweets, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP National president J P Nadda – both were also present in Dr Saha’s swearing-in ceremony today - also congratulated the Chief Minister.

Congratulations to @DrManikSaha2 ji for being sworn in as Chief Minister of Tripura and to all those who took oath today. May the double-engine government of Tripura under the leadership of PM @narendramodi ji touch the pinnacle of progress and script a new history of prosperity for the people.
