The Naga People’s Front (NPF) in its election manifesto has stated that it would provide free education to girl students up to university level.
In the field of education, the party manifesto stated that it will undertake establishment of medical college, engineering college and IISER, ensuring cent per cent enrollment across all districts, identify government schools with good results in Board exams and patronize them by way of providing quality facilities and amenities to them.
Ironically, the party also mentioned that it would ensure timely release of scholarships – an issue which has seen student organizations vocally protesting in the later part of 2017.
Other issues mentioned in the party manifesto include: setting up of Centres of Excellence in district headquarters providing them with free wi-fi facilities to enable students to do research and studies online, modernizing polytechnics to offer job-oriented course, establishments of more law colleges, setting up of an institute for training of differently abled in music, sports and business sector, ensuring transparency system of recruitment and posting of teachers and lecturers etc.
