 Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. A very warm welcome to today's program. Honorable Chief Guest, Dr. Essie Jammir, respected principal, director, faculty and staff, students, media partners, and most importantly, the ones for whom this program has been organized are freshers, Salvite. Salvite is a word taken from the Latin, which means welcome. And therefore, I, on behalf of Tetzel College, would like to welcome each and every one of you to this program. I hope that we will all have a delightful evening together. Now, it is always said that a prayer goes a long way. Before, however, before we get into the invocation prayer, I would first request our student representative to kindly come forward and felicitate our chief guest. Sir, if you may. Thank you so much, sir, for gracing us with your presence today. So to begin with, like I said, a prayer goes a long way. We will now begin with the invocation prayer for which I request Haywalo Apon, executive secretary, council of Ringma Baptist churches to kindly come to the stage. I would also request our student representative to kindly come and facilitate. Mr. Apon. Shall we look to God in prayer? Lord, our heavenly Father, we thank you so much for this beautiful day that you have granted to us. We thank you for the blessings that we receive from you each new day of our lives. We thank you for your divine providence, Lord. We thank you for these wonderful students, those of them are enrolled in Tetzel College. Father, I pray, Lord, that you bless each one of them. Especially pray for the Pharisees as they prepare their hearts, as they prepare their life. I pray also that they will prepare their spiritual life. I commit them into your hand. And we thank you for this wonderful time. We thank you for all the authorities, all the people in the teaching administration. I pray that you bless them too. And we especially would like to thank you for our tall standing leader, Dr. Esiji Amer. We thank you for his life. We thank you for so many things that they have done for our people. We pray that you will continue to bless his life so that it can be a blessing to many people. We thank you for this wonderful day, even as we celebrate together. Father, we pray that you will be in our midst and bless us in a very special way. For this I pray in the name of the Lord and save Jesus Christ. Amen. Thank you, sir, for the prayer. Next, we will have our principal, Dr. Hewasa Elking, for the welcome address. Ma'am. Good afternoon, everyone. Respected chairperson, our honorable chief guest, Dr. Esiji Amer, our special guest, Mr. Sebastian Jumu, chairman of Sovima Village Council, representatives from Sovima and Unity Village, board of directors members, director, deans, faculty, special guests, our alumni, students, both old and of course, our freshers this afternoon. On behalf of the Tetsuo College community, I would like to extend our warmest welcome and greetings to all of you for being a part of this very special gathering today. We are so honored to have with us such a high-profile guest, Dr. Esiji Amer, a Padma Bhushan awardee and an accomplished statesman at both the state and national level. And I'm also told he was the youngest signatory of the 16-point agreement that was signed between the government of India and the Naga People's Convention in 1960. Thank you so much, sir, for extending your time to be here on this fresher's day of Tetsuo College. We look very forward to hearing you address the Tetsuo College community. As stated earlier, we are all here today to celebrate the success of our freshers, the recent HSLC, HSLC, and UG students as you all move on to begin a new journey and step into college life. This year at Tetsuo College, we have welcomed more than 700 students from across the different programs and courses on offer. I'd like to request all of the freshers to kindly rise from your seats so we can have a good look at all of you and congratulate you all for making it here. Can you kindly rise from your seats? All the freshers of the HS, UG and PG level. Let's all give them a round of applause for making it this far. Congratulations. Thank you, you may be seated. I believe all of you have joined us with a purpose. Some of you might have been persuaded or pushed to take admission here at Tetsuo College. Some of you might have come on your own accord. Whatever reason you had for joining us, it is our firm belief that you are all meant to be here. And it is just the beginning of your journey. This year we have students from different boards that include NBSC, CBSC, ICSC and more. And we are also extremely happy to have a diverse profile of students representing every district in Nagaland and the different parts of Northeast too. By joining Tetsuo College, all of you freshers today are joining a community of 2,000 plus students. You are also joining a community of dreamers, thinkers, and most importantly, doers. We have started off this semester for the UG students on the 5th of July for the PG students on the 25th of August and for the class 11 students in July as well. And so far we have already witnessed a host of activities by departments and clubs. Recently we completed the selection of four students who will be representing Tetsuo College at the 2022 International Leading Together event to be held in Chennai in September, which is a joint collaboration with the University of Melbourne and four leading institutes in India. And from amongst these four selected students, Gilgall from the BA First Semester Education Honors is representing the freshers. And we could not be more proud to have such a fresh entrant already getting involved and active within the student community in such a short span of time. We cannot wait to see how much more talent the rest of you have to show us. There are many more opportunities coming up and I hope to see more of you participating and getting involved. In September, we will also be hosting students from Mumbai from ML Dahanukar College. They'll be on a student exchange program visiting Tetsuo College and Nagaland, while our students will also be visiting their college in the month of October. We also are aware that many of our students are sports players who are representing their respective districts at the Nagaland Olympics this time. We are truly proud of our Tetsuo student community and the great people that we believe all of you will become. So today, as we welcome you all into the Tetsuo College community, we are actually welcoming you all as the graduating class of 2025 with the confidence that all of you are going to graduate and go on to do great things for our society, for your communities and for your worlds. I might be jumping too far ahead and no, I'm not sending you off by saying this too soon, but three years from now, three years from now for the UG students and two years from now for the HS, for the higher secondary and PG students, we will be calling you our Tetsuo alumni. And we know that in this span of time, all of you are going to change and transform to become better, smarter, wiser versions of what you are today. And so I encourage all of you to continue with this same determination and commitment to keep on rising. As I conclude, what I wish for all of you is to live up to our college vision and mission. And so I'm going to say it out loud once again today, hoping that you will all never forget what the college vision and mission is. Together, our mission is to empower people towards lifelong excellence. And together, our vision is to create a positive impact in this world. I conclude with a quote by W. E. B. Duboy. There is in this world no such force as the force of a person determined to rise. And the human soul can never be changed, permanently changed. Good luck to the class of 2025 and to the class of 2024. May you all continue to strive for excellence. Thank you. Thank you so much, ma'am. Indeed, we are very excited to welcome our freshers, whom we have seen amazing pool of talent that you guys have. So we are looking forward to see more of a display of your talent and skills in the coming future. I am also very happy to announce that we have representatives from Sovima Village and Unity Village. And therefore I request the representatives to kindly stand wherever you are. We would like to share a small token of our appreciation to all of you. Can the representatives from Sovima Village and Unity Village kindly stand wherever you are? Thank you. Student representatives kindly do the needful. Let's all give them a big round of applause. Thank you. Now next, I call upon Dorela Jangru of BA Linguistics, who will be giving the speech on behalf of our freshers. Dorela, please take the time. Good evening, everyone. Respected Chairperson, our renowned Chief Guest, Dr. Essie Jamir, Principal, Director, Board of Directors, Teaching and Non-Teaching Faculty, Tetsuo Student Council, all invitees, and my dear friends. I am honored and privileged to stand here today to deliver this speech on behalf of all the freshers. First of all, I'd like to thank God for this beautiful day and for the opportunity to gather here, to celebrate together the 28th annual Freshers Day of Tetsuo College. I'd also like to thank the college on behalf of all the freshers for organizing such a wonderful program for us. Easing into Tetsuo College and adjusting to the new environment has been an easy process, if I'm being honest, because from the very first day, we were also warmly welcomed into the Tetsuo family by the management, faculty members, and everyone who's a part of this college. And in such a short time, we have gotten so well acquainted with our campus, classes, professors, and friends that we have already come to feel at home here. For this, we thank the college for creating such a positive, friendly environment for us to grow in, as well as for giving us the opportunity to get the best quality education in Nagaland and to be taught by such highly qualified professors. I think it is safe to say that we are amongst the luckiest students to be able to pursue our studies and explore our talents in such a dynamic and fast-developing college as this. Therefore, it is my hope and prayer that we freshers can live up to the good name of Tetsuo and only bring laurels to the college by putting our best effort in all that we do and by living up to our potential. As we embark on this new journey, my fellow freshers, I would like to encourage each one of you to make your time in Tetsuo a memorable one. As Albert Einstein said, anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new. I hope we are never afraid of stepping out of our comfort zones and challenging ourselves to do something different or to be a better version of ourselves, whether that means we stumble or fall or make mistakes. After all, we learn more from mistakes than we learn from doing something correctly. And there is no better place and time for us to make mistakes, learn from them and grow than here and now. I hope this new chapter in our lives will expose us to new experiences and allow us to find our talents and excel in our respective fields. I hope we also have fun as well as work hard and I hope we find the balance between the two. I hope through the smiles and the tears we hold onto the lessons that we learn and the friendships that we make and I hope they last for a lifetime. I hope we shine our way through our journey in Tetsuo College and I hope we remember to always strive for excellence. Thank you. Thank you, Dorella. I would also very proudly like to announce that Dorella is also a rank holder of the NBSC HSSLC exams from the art stream. So welcome and we are really looking forward to, you know, witnessing the pull of talent that you guys have. Before we move on to the next item, can I also request our media partners to kindly stand wherever you are. We would also like to facilitate you guys. Media partners, student representatives, you are requested to do the needful. A round of applause for them as well. Thank you. Now next, we have a very special performance, a traditional performance by the Music and Dance Club of Tetsuo College. Performance, you are requested to take the stage.

My unflinching respect to our Chief Guest, Dr. Essie Jameer. Individuals in the program, dignitaries, their associates, and others who came along with them, academic heads, college staffs, teaching staffs, the students community. Good evening to you all.

Within no time, there is an alumni network team that makes and tries and focus to strengthen the network connecting each students in the state, across the country, and all over the world, our alumni is scattered but we are connected because we are an alumni of Tatsuo College.

We hope that the Tetsuo alumni network will continue to grow and that it will help us in shaping the future of our students as well as the college. I would also request our student representative to kindly come forward and felicitate Mashiwil Ilthu. And now we will have an announcement by Lerete Kuzo, assistant professor, department of political science. The governor's doctor, Tiaw Scholarship, was established when the honorable governor, Sri Pibi Acharya, visited the Tetsuo College on Scholastic Day 23rd January 2017. This award is given to the sports students studying at the Tetsuo College, encouraging the awardees to strive for excellence. This year, Dr. Tiaw's scholarship award 2020 are Senti Tushi Jamir from BBA and Desingun Yolina from political science. These two individuals have represented the college at various levels, state level and the national level. Senti Tushi has participated in the JV Foundation Basketball Tournament. He also participated in the Open Basketball Tournament Kuhima. He was also the college basketball team captain. Currently, he is the coach of the Tetsuo College basketball team. I invite Sebastian Zima, the village council, to hand over the gifts to the awardees. Yolina, she is representative of the Tetsuo College, representing our college at various levels. Currently, she is representing our college at Nagaland Olympics and Paralympics. Currently, they are held in Longland 2022, so she is not here today with us. She also is the runner-up of the Under 17 category Inter-district Basketball Tournament held in 2019. She also won the Kello Indian District Tournament Badminton champion in 2019. Currently, she is representing our college again here in 2020 in Longland. In her absence, I would want to invite Ms. KV to receive the award on her behalf. Thank you, Lerete. We are really happy that we have got students who are, you know, receiving such kind of scholarships. So apart from our Dr. T, our scholarship, Tetsuo College also offers many more other scholarship and financial aids to our students, which includes the Tetsuo Excellence Scholarship. It includes the Tetsuo Council of Ringma Baptist Church's scholarship. We have got the Dr. P.S. Lorin financial aid scholarship as well, which we are proud to announce that many of our students have availed it and this is one of the ways in which we are trying to fulfill our, you know, vision of creating a positive impact in the world. So kudos to our college. Now, the next item that we have is the introduction of our very special chief guest, which will be presented to us by Mr. Sebastian Zumbu, who is the chairman of the Sovima Village Council. Sir, please take the time. I would also request our student representative to kindly come forward and facilitate Sir Zumbu. You can come here and take it, sir. Thank you. I bring greetings and warm wishes from the Village Council of Sovima and I wish each and every one of you gathered here this evening a very beautiful evening. It is a proud privilege for me to be standing in front of such a huge multitude of young people this evening. And it's all thanks to my young friends, Mr. Kulo Lorin for making this possible. Thank you. I'm privileged to be here. Even though Techo College falls under my village jurisdiction, I haven't had the privilege of being around and this is my first day to be here in this campus, in this beautiful sprawling campus, I should say. All these years I've heard many, many good things about the village. I mean, David, about the college that is here in the village. I've heard about the infrastructure, the good national quality infrastructure that is provided here by the college. I've also heard of the quality of the faculty here of this college and also the quality of education imparted to the students of this college and most importantly the discipline that is imbibed into the minds of the young students. Though it's all fully belated, I must take this opportunity to thank this college for making our village proud when a couple of months back when the district administration required all the villages in the vicinity of the national highway to conduct social walks, your college was kind enough to arrange more than 250 volunteers who came and walked tirelessly even though for a few hours only on the national highway and that was the sign of all the passes by and it was the envy of all the neighboring villages and the very presence of young volunteers that morning had made the deputy commissioner of Chumukidema, Mr. Abhinav Shivam, to write a personal letter to the village council thanking the council for arranging such a large number of volunteers. The credit of that letter or that acknowledgement should have rightly belonged to Techo College. I thank you for that generosity on your part. I also must thank the administrators of this college for arranging dozens of blood volunteers, blood donors rather, who came forward when our village council organized a blood donation camp two months back. I forget the date now but it was two months back and the officers manning the blood bank at the civil hospital Dimapur, they were very impressed and have thanked us profusely. I must also convey those profuse thanks to all the young people here who have come forward and in future also. I expect young healthy people like you all to come forward and donate blood when there are people requiring blood and staying there in intensive care units unable to find blood. Why not us healthy people walking around? Come forward and donate blood. That is a subject very close to my heart and I will take this opportunity to make an appeal to all the young friends to come forward as and when such donation drives are organized. The other day when today's program was circulated on the social media and that I will be doing the introduction of Dr. R.C. Jamil. A friend of mine called me up and said hey you got it all wrong. Dr. R.C. Jamil doesn't need any introduction. Who doesn't know him? You please introduce the crowd to him one by one but considering the number of people here sir I don't think they'll be possible but it has been a proud privilege for me when in 1998 when I was 28. I won't mention things that have been reported in the papers or in periodicals or in literature but I wish to inform the gathering here that way back in 1958 when he was freshly out of the university after finishing his LLB from Allahabad University he was barely 27 years old and those days in the 50s Nagas went through such a tumultuous time that not you but even me also I didn't live through got to know only through literature and only through oral history that has been passed on by elders but he was barely to the seven years old when he attended the second the Naga People's Convention held at his native village Umma and he was appointed as the joint secretary of the Naga People's Convention and he along with his elders shouldered the responsibilities of the Naga People then the personality the aura and the respect that he commanded from the people can be imagined by his peers and his youngers who recall decades and decades later on that whenever the young Jamil walks through the town Mokchung town people used to stand aside point out at him from behind his back or from ahead and say hey that is Mr. Esi Jamil that's what they used to say behind his back we can only imagine the the respect that he had from such a very tender age of 27 he had been like I said working with his elders like Dr. Imkong Libar late Mr. Vizal, Mr. Jebi Josuke and also yes our late Mr. Sentie Rengma who happens to be the your principle none other than your principle Havosa is married to the grandson of his friend Mr. Sentie yes Mr. Jamil has been associated with elderly people from a very tender age and you all must be knowing that in from 1959 1959 when the third convention of the Naga People were held was held a memorandum was submitted to the then prime minister I should say one of the towering statements statesmen of the earlier half of the last century Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and I don't exactly know how many times Mr. Jamil had interacted with Mr. Nehru but I'm very sure I can say with confidence that he must have impressed Mr. Nehru so much that in 1961 May 5th to be precise Mr. Jamil when he was hardly 31 years old he was appointed as the parliamentary secretary to the great Mr. Nehru who was then the prime minister and you all must have heard about the Cuban crisis when the United States and the USSR were on the brink of bringing the world to a nuclear war on the Indian delegation was sent to the United Nations and the young Mr. Jamil when he was in hardly 32 he was appointed as the political advisor to that delegation he walked under Mr. Kevi Kristamandan the then defense minister and during the many interactions that I have had with Mr. Jamil he used to recall how the United Nations used to call emergency meetings at midnight and when great personalities like Adlai Stevenson of the United States and also Andrei Gromyko the permanent representative of the USSR to the United Nations they had heated arguments for and against each other for themselves and against the other and Mr. Jamil was privileged I should say to have been personally present there listening to all these developments which shaped the course of human history that was way back in 1962 and you also you all must remember that it was in on October 20 when the Chinese incursion took place in India and for us Indians that eclipsed what transpired in Cuba when Russia tried to install nuclear weapons in Cuba not even 90 miles from the American soil naturally America opposed it just as Russia is opposing Ukraine joining the United Nations I mean the NATO these days he had been associated with towering world figures and national figures that it is no wonder that his outlook his temperament his mentality is of national level and many many of us Nagas will find it very hard to comprehend what he thinks of politics of naga politics or of naga political issue what he had been saying 25 30 years back about how naga political problems should be solved he was criticized then his life was attempted several times not only once but four times but I think he must derive the maximum pleasure when he was when it has come to pass that what he was saying 25 years back is what is actually happening now and you all remember that a couple of months back the prime minister of India the home minister of India invited him to Delhi to seek his opinion on various issues I call upon Mr Jamil sir to come and share with us what you feel maybe from the start or wherever because you will agree with me after listening to him it is always a learning and a pleasure to listen to the great legendary old band of naga and politics Dr. Sijamir sir so thank you so much sir Zumbu for the perfect introduction to our chief guest and now for one of the most awaited even I request Dr. Sijamir to kindly take the time for his address to all of us can we have a big round of applause for sir why because in their mind in their heart and in their eyes there is a glimpse of the future and I know that a younger generation who are assembled here you have got a vision of naga land and since you are the builders of the future you're the leaders of the future I'm very sure that you have a glimpse of the kind of naga future during your time and I pray to God that your endeavor your vision will be fructified during your time deliberately I have chosen my theme to speak to you this evening a trace with the future of naga land but before I dwelt on this theme I would like to preface the kind of situation the world of the nagas are placed today if you have to design the future you should know the past and the present and therefore I want to have a benarubic view of the entire landscape of this great country a great land of ours we are facing very peculiar negative features in naga land and that negativism has blocked the very survival the very existence of naga people and what are these features sometimes I think that instead of blaming each other now let us take the whole there is no point in criticizing individuals or groups but let us have introspection retrospection and analysis what have we done as a naga people otherwise if we started criticizing blaming each other then there will be no way out to steer the sheep of the state to the golden shore and therefore by digging the entire responsibility on the naga people themselves let us now look into what really are the impediments what really are the problems what really are the negative elements that are retarding our growth our unity our survival i always feel that the naga land we are virtually portraying that tower of abel when they build up this tower of abel it was with unity but the same people with the same objective and their ambition was to build a tower reaching the sky but what happened in due course of time they have relied too much on their own strength they become proud they said it is by themselves and what happened god intervenes and those people who are working unitedly with one accord they started speaking different languages they couldn't even understood each other and i think we have replicated the same thing in naga land today in the beginning the leaders of these two years they had a dream of a united robles naga land and with one accord with one purpose and with one mind and with one objective they started but today what do you find exactly like tower of abel multiple factions not only underground overground also speaking different language talking about different approaches and they are talking about naga cause naga cause naga but that cause is nowhere because we're quarreling among ourselves we are divided by ourselves no one has divided us it is we ourselves have divided among ourselves and today we are ribbing the bitter fruits it's not a sweet the bitter fruits we are ribbing today that is one of the negative features of naga land secondly i feel that we don't hear in naga land except blame game criticism we don't hear anything about appreciation acknowledgement what has gone wrong with naga people we don't like to even appreciate what people have done good things we want to only criticize so there's total absence of the milk up human guidance and naga society today and that is what you young generation you it's a greatest challenge for you to overcome to surmount these negative elements that is blocking and naga society that's another one now what is this negativism i think this is a tendency to to do opposite now when naga people are crying let there be unity among naga people let the factions come to one platform then instead of that again we are fighting criticizing each other isn't that negativism it is and this will not help us when naga people are crying crying the door should be pleased settlement then again they don't like that settlement that negative attitude have developed for 20 years more than 20 years the government of india have been very leaning and it was at the initiative of the underground leaders that ceasefire was arranged but they also felt that armed revolution will not be able to achieve the goal and therefore did themselves voluntarily at their own volition they have decided to have ceasefire ceasefire for what to carry on the political negotiation peacefully in a democratic way and i believe for 20 years 25 years it was at the bidding of the underground government i mean i said yes yes we shall have talk in bengal yes in jennifer yes in tokyo here yes government of india has said yes yes yes they have never ever disturbed the program of our naga leaders who would like to talk to government of india but at last at long last they have to come back why in foreign countries was there any country which have helped us know therefore through their political wisdom recognizing that contemporary political leaders both in the world and in the country and in our state they came back after 20 years discussion they have drawn up what is called agreement by water parties they put their signature and at that time what have they done clapping hands shaky hands isn't that a sign of approval isn't that a sign of endorsement and as a christian as a naga i sincerely feel that we should be true to our promise we should be true to our oath and we have to exhibit to the country and the world that naga people stand by their own world and their own deed but it is not happening today my dear young friends it is not happening today why our people are not honest we are we have become very un christian so this other problem you have to face today now naga people naga underground not only the overground today there are so many talking shop everywhere talking talking talking talking but we want workshop not talking shop only one workshop to produce to harness but that is utterly lacking in this part of the country as an old man i always feel very sad what had gone wrong with these beautiful people who occupies the world of the naga and that is one very big issue problem challenges which you younger generation have to face answer more that's one now if we had to build up a future a trials with the future of naga what could be done we dream dreams for a brave robust united peaceful progressive naga land where there will be plenty of opportunities for our younger generation and that is a kind of vision we have but today we have lost a vision and they said if every name vision is there and without vision if they act it is like a daydream and when you act with a vision also then it is nightmare and that is exactly happening in naga land we don't know whether it is playing whether it is white we're chasing placard in the dark and the placard is not also there but we're chasing chasing that placard and the dark in darkness and that is exactly happening in this part of the world now if you had to build up the future as i have said it should be a robust united progressive where there will be plenty of opportunities for young people to develop then how do we start remember when we talk about progress whether it is the life of a nation or individual what is the most important thing is it implies an ideal unless you have an ideal you cannot really drone up your program and therefore for building of a nation a building of a state naga society we require an ideal and how to achieve that ideal when about the consciousness of the people there begins a dawn the vision of weakness realizing our own weakness and when is the result of this is begotten or is born a longing for national reconstruction national reformation and when the minds of the people are stirred up then they'll be able to freely pilot the sheep of the state to the golden shore and that is what exactly what we want today they have to navigate without any obstruction once you have that one in other words we have been all the time talking about beauty and naga people you know very well that from distance it lends charm when you look from this day it's very charming but as you go ne'er the ne'er then the hazy pictures comes into focus the what you discover the ugliness the sport become clearly visible so that we know oh it's not beautiful it is ugly and then your enthusiasm it evaporates then and there shielding place to oh yes this is real this is unreal i think that recognition good realization is very very important today because whatever we are talking said we are looking from a distance and as if everything is charming by everything is not charming my dear friends now in your way you'll definitely find lots of problems and i have said the most dangerous problem will be an obnoxious as you said it'll be a negative features which it is only in pipe in the very vein of our own people and we have been witnessing fragmentation of undergone people fragmentation of overgone people during our time my time we have never discussed about tenemia growth or cndc or imbio we have never discussed but what had gone wrong now my dear young friends you rise above this tribe it is on if you heard the build up nagaland and robos nagaland above you rise above this because today leaders they're talking about tribe not country not people then how can we expect a bright future when people don't talk about the future and now people are so obsessed especially leaders not only underground but overgrown they are very much interested only the past events past glory they don't worry about nagaland cement commission leave site this is a part of history but we're not living in history we have to make history are you not trying to make new history much more than this past but leaders i don't know while they're only so obsessed only with this past past past both underground and overgrown so should we not change our mindset to look forward and come to sense because many thousand thousand yesterday has passed thousand thousand tomorrow so so haphazardly pass but one thing is with us today is always with you with me it doesn't change and that is the time when you had to do you can do when you are today yesterday you cannot do and therefore if you had to build up the future you realize the importance of today the person which is in you with you always will be with you that's what i want to tell you now for many many years now the people were subjected with gun culture and that has created fair psychosis and with their fair psychosis people don't speak out the truth even the bible you said if you know the truth everything will go like that but we are not learning knowing the truth that's why we're not them making any headway in any any way because truth is absent from our society and perhaps from our mind also i'm afraid so this one thing which i'd like to tell you people dominated by fair people contaminated by corruption people in deeply strong in confusion they cannot rise up and therefore let us give up this negative features which is really making in note in the naga society let us put a stop to this one now we are always blaming what to do now they are faking the living and make believe the world in case now as i told you pass pass there is a saying you know flaking the dead horse we're always flaking the dead horse it'll don't move and we're exactly indulged in that only flaking the dead horse i think let us ride on the living horse not flaking that dead horse it'll not move secondly now the rumble corruption don't blame on the government the inter people are corrupt that's why i said why not we have salvation out of this for us and what is the way out we believe in a god and that is our god which believe in righteousness of a nation should we not adhere to the biblical teaching to make our country our people righteous so that again be exalted and that is the challenge for you young people thirdly you don't mind in naga land it's a we have declared a naga land is a land of fishes that means no work and it was followed by road shows fashion shows beauty contest celebrations of jubilies various jubilies and every day we present bus class three tanks give you full of this entertainment many many will it help our economy our economy these are all negative aspects of our life yes but now even beauty contest has gone to the village level also fortunately monkey have not decided to have beauty contest otherwise in naga land now male beauty contest village i don't know what had gone wrong with our people i wish we are scolded by monkeys we are also here like this now therefore i would tell our younger generation be positive in your approach if for a better future let us reinvent transform the naga land of today for a better future for the total overhauling of the entire system which is already broken and let the government cannot do why so many government now now we have many prime ministers we have many presidents so in portugal the elected government she made it has become only the third in portugal and that is a kind of government we have helpless so what are you going to do with this is it real or a dream now many of us for home the bell tolls are you sure for hope the bell tolls it does not all for others but it tolls for us i don't want you to realize it tolls for us it'll be worthwhile for us especially the youth to take note of today's reality vis-a-vis the pen indian as well as prevailing global scenario you'll be a citizen of the world not confine your tribe not to your village your vision your outlook your mindset should be global you're living in a very competitive world and therefore urge you that you should develop a global outlook a global mind and a global attitude towards life an american writer denise wetley he said because he has written a book empires of the mind and he especially emphasized that what worked yesterday will not work today what was relevant yesterday will not be relevant today what was spoken yesterday was will not be relevant today and he said while determining the global economy in the past we think about resources whether you come to haircut sufficient source or not but today it is the knowledge knowledge is the power and today we are having economy based on knowledge and therefore he said this world is in that line so you should go on that line now you have so many challenges and you cannot remain quiet so i mean vivienda said while you are journeying your life he said arise awake and stop not till the great god is rich so my dear young students you should keep awake you should arise and don't stop until you achieve your goal i think your uh this time the senior this um should not say the same thing i think that's correct now i was lastly i would like to only say like this if we have to live as a united harmonious society let us forget about i i i because in our older generation we should support the talents and give them space for development but today because of this deep competition now the culture of i has come there's nothing wrong in there but you should say not only i but i and others too you should remember not only i but others also and another thing is i want to quote this also vivienda says the greatest religion is to be true to your own nature unless you are true to yourself how can you be true to even to god have faith in yourself you have to grow from the inside out none can teach you there's no other teacher but your own the secret of great success of the true happiness of this the man or woman who asks for no return the perfectly unselfish person is the most successful day alone who live for others i think we have to imbibe the spirit in the younger generation of naga people because today our people have become too great too greedy and therefore this spirit should be empire nagaland is a threshold to embark on a new i think era of peace and stability hence you job nagaland to be standard torchbearer not for all but standard torchbearer of all the good that we have lived for and we seek for need be given to your to face life problem with clear eyes and without fear and you will i think if we imbibe the spirit nagaland will shine nagaland will be a robust united prosperous harmonious progress state and all depends upon you young people you surround all these challenges and build up that future of nagaland to be a pride a drill of this great country thank you thank you so much sir you are
