“Today, over 200 students were enrolled in the Nahortoli model school. We have adopted the 419 tea garden schools. We will provide better education for the tea garden students,” Pegu said.

“How deplorable it is that no one cared for education in Assam’s Tea Garden areas until Himanta Biswa Sarma became the Education Minister.

“His bold decision is filling up a big void in Education forAll and now bringing smiles to our children. Feeling happy to inaugurate Romai TE Model School in Lahowal LAC,” Ranoj Pegu tweeted.
