Kohima: The Nagaland State Bharat Scouts and Guides wrapped up their state-wide Jamborette on October 9 at the STC in Nerhema. The event ran from October 6 to 10. Participants from 10 districts gathered for the five-day meet. School Education Advisor Dr. Kekhriehoulie Yhome served as the special guest for the final program. Yhome, a Rajya Scout award recipient and trained Scout Master, pushed for more youth to join the movement. He stated, "Encourage greater enrolment of boys in Scouts and girls in Guides."
The event hosted 11 distinct competitions. Teams battled for the overall championship title in folk song, folk dance, quiz, colour party, district exhibition, food plaza, pageant show, campcraft, district gate, and pioneering projects. Scouts and Guides from Zunheboto performed a folk dance for the crowd. Ultimately, Mokokchung district walked away as the overall champion.
Organizers filled the schedule with morning BP exercises, friendship games, and indigenous games to build unity among the districts. The finale featured the beating of the retreat by the Hauyang Choba Pipe Band. Officials lowered the flags of the Bharat Scouts and Guides and the Jamborette to mark the end of the festivities.
