Later, the team from Gujarat met Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb at the civic secretariat where discussions took place over the speedy completion of the project. It is speculated that students from different parts of the state as well as from foreign countries may take admission to the upcoming University in Tripura which may prove to be a big boon for the state's education infrastructure. In the initial stage, a makeshift campus has been opened at Rashtriya Sanskrit Sansthan complex in Agartala's Radha Nagar. Admission for five selected courses has also begun in the temporary campus.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to visit the proposed site for the Forensic Science University in Tripura to lay the foundation stone. Shah was initially scheduled to visit on November 21, however, the visit may be delayed due to the Civic Elections as the Model Code of Conduct has come into force in the state.
