Addressing the gathering after laying the foundation for both the GPS, Suohumvü, while impressing on the need of quality education, also highlighted on the aims and objectives of the SSA scheme and towards its successful implementation.
He said the SSA started in 2003 with the aim to provide quality education for children mostly from class 1 to 8. Having felt the need for children to go to school so that every section of the society could equally prosper, he also stressed on the government’s plan and initiative for free and compulsory education.
Mentioning that education department is one among the few departments being communitized by the state government, Suohumvü fervently appealed to the villagers to hold equal responsibility along with the government in the endeavour.
He has urged the Village Council and the Village Education Committee (VEC) not to compromise on children’s education and at the same time asked them to act responsibly in being good guardians and caretakers of the educational institutions located within the village.
Also stating that Sechü Zubza has bright prospect to become an important educational centre, Suohumvü, while mentioning that good numbers of educational institutions have already been set up, he foresees that more institutions will come as the village is located at the stretch of National Highway 29 having favorable climate and land resource, and that it also being the sub-divisional centre of the Western Angamis.
He further extended his gratitude to Akielie Sekhose and the SZVC for donating land for the said purpose.
