State higher & technical education minister Temjen Imna Along in his inaugural speech said, “We as students sometimes become quite narrow to study what is there in our books but today we have arrived, we would have to redefine our thinking and work hard towards that.”
He further said that the Naga Tech event would provide a platform to the polytechnic students to showcase their talents and help them in becoming leaders in the fields of technology.
