Which one is recognised as the State tree of Tripura ?

Indian states designate official State symbols — a state animal, bird, flower and tree — to highlight species of special ecological, economic or cultural importance to that state. The State tree is the tree species formally adopted as an emblem of the state.

For Tripura the officially recognised State tree is the Agar tree (Aquilaria malaccensis / Aquilaria agallocha), prized for the fragrant resin (agarwood) it produces. It grows naturally in Tripura's forests and is of high commercial value, which is why the state adopted it as its emblem.

• Banyan (Ficus benghalensis) is the National tree of India, not a Tripura emblem.

• Sal (Shorea robusta) is the state tree of states such as Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand, not Tripura.

• Coconut (Cocos nucifera) is associated with coastal states like Kerala and Goa, not landlocked Tripura.

Therefore, Tripura's State tree is the Agar tree.
