Dimapur, March 17 (MExN): Expressing shock that the New Model College, Wakching in Mon district has remained inoperative despite being inaugurated on February 3 this year, the Rising People’s Party (RPP) said it is on “total support of the demands and representations submitted to the Department of Higher and Technical Education by the ENCSU.”
The Eastern Nagaland College Students’ Union, in serving an Ultimatum to the H&TE department, demanded for functioning of the New Model College, Wakching by 2022 session, it said in a press release on Thursday.
Stating that the “obtuse system of functioning of the H&TE has proved to be destructive both for the future of aspiring students as well as for the pace of development for the State as a whole,” the RPP, in recognizing the potential, whether it is the prospect of opportunity created for further studies or in creating relief in terms of employment for the thousands of well educated intellectuals, supports the ENCSU’s rightful demand.
“The RPP entreats the H&TE Department to shun ignorance and take up the matter urgently at the earliest so as to cater to the future aspirations of the Students and also to avoid any unpleasant situations that may arise because of it,” while reminding the department that any form of excuse and delay tactics would only prove to be adding salt to the wounds of the Naga people.
