Initiated in October 2010, with a plan that consisted of a planned construction for three years, which was completed two years later, in September of the year 2015, partly due to the special characteristics to resist earthquakes which involved additional work in the construction of the foundations. The church was officially blessed and dedicated by Cardinal [[Patrick D'Rozario]] in April 2017.<ref>{{cite web|title=Tripura’s new Catholic cathedral inaugurated|url=https://mattersindia.com/2017/04/tripuras-new-catholic-cathedral-inaugurated/|date=April 24, 2017|accessdate=February 11, 2020|publisher=Matters India}}</ref>

The church is contemporary in style influenced by local forms, especially on the deck

The interior of the church is a nave with side aisles and balconies at the top and an apse at the end of the nave in which the main altar is located. Behind the apse is the sacristy.
