Advisor Wangpang Konyak, in his speech, appreciated all the people involved in this project and bringing it to reality. He said it is a great opportunity for the people of Mon to have such a learning facility, as it is the first of its kind in Nagaland. He also encouraged the students to take advantage of such modern technology. “The education system in Nagaland has improved a lot; how you study is more important than where you study,” he said.
Konyak also assured that he would address the problems faced by teachers and students to higher authorities.
Deputy Commissioner of Mon, Ajit Kumar Verma, IAS, in his speech, stated that it is the first of its kind in Nagaland. He thanked the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, Government of India, for choosing Mon District for this project and funding it. The education program has been designed in such a way that students can learn through VR, AR, Animation, Visual Effects, and Modern Gaming in the education section. He said the idea is to integrate modern and upgraded methods. He encouraged the students to make use of these tools as instrumental in the learning process to gain knowledge not easily available on traditional platforms. He also added that this can be popularized only if the students are interested and make use of it. He mentioned that a team would be set up to manage these tools.
EAC HQ, Tshelhiu, chaired the program, while the students of GHSS Mon presented a special number. The vote of thanks was delivered by EAC HQ, T Imlongchaba Chang.
