Kohima: Tourism and Higher Education Minister Temjen Imna Along took a swing at local organizations during a student awards ceremony. He spoke at the All Nagaland College Students Union degree toppers event held August 5 at SIRD Hall in Kohima. Along claimed, "the greatest enterprise that Nagaland has ever done is creating unnecessary NGOs and Civil Societies." He wants better.
The minister urged the 17 Naga tribes and non-Naga citizens to stop prioritizing individual gains. He warned that Nagaland remains the most divided society in India after 60 years of statehood. He argued that selfish, narrow goals will only cause future suffering. He pushed for long-term planning to build a prosperous state.
ANCSU honored 47 students for academic excellence. This group included 20 students from Nagaland University, 20 from autonomous colleges, and seven from polytechnic schools. The event featured an invocation by Dr. Chikhungo Puro and a speech from topper Eunice Aier. ANCSU President Kivika Yeptho told the crowd that these achievements show the power of dedication. He promised the union would keep pushing for educational change.
