Agartala, 1st June 2026: . In a significant step towards strengthening rural healthcare services, ten ASHA facilitators in Dhalai district received e-cycles on Monday. The distribution ceremony was organized at the Ambassa Primary Health Centre conference hall under the initiative of the District Health and Family Welfare Society.
The e-cycles were provided by Tripura State Electricity Corporation Limited (TSECL) to support ASHA workers in reaching remote villages more efficiently.
