Kohima | April 21
The Nagaland Taekwondo Association (NTA) in collaboration with RMSA (Nagaland) has taken the challenge to work for the security of the school going girls in the state.
Towards this, a three day long seminar & refreshers course for Taekwondo coaches under the aegis of RMSA Nagaland and NTA was conducted from April 19 to 21 here at Indira Gandhi Stadium Kohima.
This course is designed for self defence techniques for the session 2016-17 for women in the state.
It will be implemented in 240 secondary schools across the state, said Ayie Yhome, deputy project director RMSA Nagaland.
The 52 coaches who completed this refreshers course will now train all girls students studying in class 9 & 10 in 240 schools across the state.
Crimes against women continue to show a rise in the country and the state of Nagaland in particular. “This horror events in our today's society break down the security of our women. The intellectuals in our society are now putting full effort to minus crime against women. Of all the works it is indeed necessary to give an effective technical training to our women for safety,” the manual of this concept stated.
A ‘Self defense techniques for women’ RMSA Nagaland Revised Edition book has been prepared technically to impart quality combat techniques to school going girls for their safety. NTA president Pele Khezhie was also present at the valedictory function and asked the coaches to translate the desired goal into a reality.
