CBSE opens sub-regional office at Agartala

Agartala, Oct 5 (UNI) The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has opened its sub-regional office at Agartala today, aiming to strengthen and decentralise the state's academic administration.
The state government has long been trying to have an administrative setup here as BJP-led government in Tripura introduced CBSE curriculum and affiliated over 200 schools, which were earlier under Tripura Board of Secondary Education (TBSE).
"The office will streamline CBSE-related services for schools, students, and teachers of the state. Until now, CBSE-affiliated schools in Tripura had to coordinate with the Guwahati regional office, which often led to logistical challenges and delays," said Director Secondary Education N C Sharma.
