Tripura Government Directs 50% of Group C and D Staff to Work from Home

The Tripura government has implemented austerity measures directing that 50% of Group C and D employees work from home on a rotational basis to reduce expenditure and conserve fuel. Heads of Departments are tasked with preparing weekly duty rosters prioritizing staff living near offices. These measures apply to government offices, PSUs, local bodies, and autonomous entities, excluding essential and emergency services. The order is effective immediately and will continue until further notice.
