The Tripura government provides housing for the first chief minister’s wife.
The Tripura government has approved allotment of a Type-IV bungalow for 91-year-old Lakshmi Singh, wife of state’s first chief minister Sachindra Lal Singh, an official said on Thursday.
Singh’s wife had recently requested Chief Minister Manik Saha for a residence since she did not have one.
