Speaking to reporters after the inspection, Roy said the government is working to complete the project at the earliest, with the aim of inaugurating the hostel during the upcoming Durga Puja. He directed officials to ensure that the construction is completed within the stipulated timeframe without compromising on quality.

The minister said the facility will provide accommodation for young participants visiting Kailashahar from different parts of the state to take part in sports, cultural, and youth development programmes.
