It revealed from the History that a drift of remarkable number of student and general public gradually increased for higher education and their livelihood to the city of Kolkata at the later Part of Nineteenth century. Hence to honour the demand of time, the main office of Tripura Hitasadhini Sabha was shifted from the city of Dhaka to this city of Kolkata in the Bengali year 1300 i.e. in 1894 AD. however the Dhaka branch, continued to function for a long period. Later that branch was closed and presently we have no branches at any places other than in Kolkata. The welfare activities at the main office of Kolkata received a great momentum and number of members increased gradually by leaps and bounds. Very soon the Sabha realised the necessity of one Permanent accommodation in the city of Kolkata for its better functioning. A building fund was created and the Sabha had started collecting donations for building Fund' form its members, patrons and well wishers to fulfil the 'dream' of having a permanent accommodation in Calcutta.
