Like other states in India, the head of state of Tripura is the Governor, appointed by the President of India on the advice of the Central government. The post of governor is largely ceremonial. The Chief Minister is the head of government and is vested with most of the executive powers. Agartala is the capital of Tripura, and houses the Vidhan Sabha (Legislative Assembly) and the secretariat. The Tripura High Court, located in Agartala, Tripura exercises the jurisdiction and powers in respect of cases arising in the State of Tripura. [3]

The present Legislative Assembly of Tripura is unicameral, consisting of 60 Member of the Legislative Assembly (M.L.A). Its term is 5 years, unless sooner dissolved. [4]

Training for staff working for the State Government and other bodies delivering public services such as NGOs is provided by the State Institute of Public Administration and Rural Development - an autonomous body whose executive team comprises senior officials of the State Government. [5]
