Agartala, Sept 10: Tripura Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha inaugurated Northeast India’s first 3D Printing Solution Centre at Agartala Government Dental College on Tuesday.
Speaking at the event, Dr. Saha, who also holds the Health portfolio, emphasized the state government's commitment to establishing an education and health hub in Tripura, highlighting these sectors as priority areas.
“We are working to establish an education and health hub in the state. I spoke with Union Health Minister J.P. Nadda about setting up Homeopathy and Ayurvedic Medical Colleges. We must try. We are working to establish an AIIMS- or RIMS-like hospital. Kidney transplants were something we never thought of,” Dr. Saha remarked.
He expressed pride in this new achievement, stating that the inauguration of the 3D Printing Solution Centre adds another feather in the cap of Agartala Government Dental College.
“Dental College was a dream project for us. We made several efforts to open this institution. Even during the previous government’s tenure, 10 years ago, we tried to open such a college. But whenever you aim to do something good, there will always be negative-minded people trying to prevent it. We know the struggles we faced to start the Dental College," he said.
Dr. Saha noted that advancements in science, particularly in the field of dentistry, are rapidly evolving, and the new 3D printing lab is a reflection of this progress. The use of AI at the 3D Printing Solution Centre is expected to reduce the load on the OPD.
"I was very pleased when the first batch of the Dental College passed with good results. It was heartening to see this. With our excellent faculty, students are able to achieve good marks. We want Agartala Government Dental College to become a model institution in the country. Everyone should know about this college. I urge the faculty to use the latest technology,” he added.
He further announced that Tripura is the first state in the Northeast to establish a 3D Printing Solution Centre in a Dental College.
“This is a huge achievement. Surgeries, bone grafting, and various advanced procedures, including bloodless operations, are all taking place here. More than 100 patients visit this hospital daily. Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated this Dental College, and it is our responsibility to maintain its reputation. Over 3,000 patients visit here monthly. I am confident the institution will continue to develop. Around 20 students have enrolled in the second batch,” said Dr. Saha.
The event was attended by Health Secretary Kiran Gitte, Tammu Jamoh, Director (Science and Technology), Ministry of DoNER, Director of Health Services Prof. Dr. Sanjeeb Kumar Debbarma, Dr. H.P. Sharma, Director of Medical Education, and other dignitaries.
