Kohima: Ten schools competed in the District Level Quiz Competition 2026 on November 4. The event took place at the PM SHRI Mayangnokcha Government Higher Secondary School auditorium in Mokokchung. Students faced rounds covering Indian polity, modern Indian history, and Nagaland current affairs.

NI Jamir Government Higher Secondary School finished in first place. Mayangnokcha GHSS took second, while Queen Mary Higher Secondary School followed in third. Three students earned spots for the upcoming state-level contest: Sentijungla from NI Jamir GHSS, Muili T. Sangtam from Mayangnokcha GHSS, and Alemwati from Queen Mary HSS.

Assistant Commissioner Dr. Madhavi R, IAS, attended the event as a special guest. She praised the inclusion of regional history for helping students grasp their identity. Reflecting on the difficulty of the material, she noted, "some reminded her of her own preparation for the UPSC examination."

The Department of Parliamentary Affairs of the Nagaland government sponsored the competition. Teachers from NI Jamir GHSS wrote the quiz questions. Educators credited the turnout to the work of the district education officer and district coordinator Arenla. They welcomed the mix of both private and government school participants.
