The inaugural programme was graced by Manish Bhartiya, IPS, Superintendent of Police, Phek, as the special guest.
In his address, Bhartiya encouraged students to participate actively in school and college activities, recalling how his own involvement in various events during his student days helped him overcome fears and shaped his personality and character. He urged students to seize opportunities to showcase their talents, make use of available resources and guidance to develop their skills, and regard every experience as an opportunity to learn. He emphasised that learning is a continuous process.
