It's a very good place for science lover...please do visit and experience it....
Govt invested lots of money, but due to lack of care, most of the equipments are out of order.
Good place for study tour by student...
Very good place for students, technology park
The equipments are in quite poor condition .
Only a handful of science equipments are working properly. In many parts there is only dust and insects home . Most of the writings are in Bengali so I think tourists will surely fell difficult to match with this environment
.
In order to achieve the objectives of promoting science , arts & culture theough direct involvement of children in science , arts & culture., the Government of Tripura decided to build Sukanta Academy -a mini science city type project. The Foundation stone of Sukanta Academy was laid by the then chief minister of Tripura late Nripen Chakraborty in 1986. Due to some unavoidable reasons the construction work of the project was postponed in the mid way. The remaiming construction work of the project was started in 1996. In February 1997, Sukanta Academy was opened for the public with some basic science oriented models --
* Science gallery which exhibits models procured from NCSM
* ISRO gallery with models pro vided by ISRO
*Railway gallery consists of models provided by Ministry of Railway
*Forest gallery consists models provided by Forest Department . Govt. Of Tripura
The most attractive model was started in 2007. The project is sky watching system with gps telescope. Another model -journey to the via Mars is also very attractive one to the people of all section.
Not much to see. Very illy maintained. Most of the exhibits have been closed down. Not many visitors nowadays.
