Dimapur, January 7
Minister for School Education & SCERT, Yitachu Pfitu on Thursday said there was no community organization that ever solved employment problems by offering government and state jobs.
Speaking as the chief guest on the second day of the 51st Changkikong Kaketshir Mungdang (CKM) conference at Waromung, the politician asserted that government jobs have reached a saturation point. “No government in the world can solve unemployment problem by giving government job,” he said.
The Education minister also asserted that truth was the only way in life and added that ‘we should practice and lead an honest livelihood.’ In this connection, the minister questioned, “if no country can do it (to solve unemployment problem by giving government job), can the Nagas do it?”
He asserted that it would be wrong to think that the government was always there to create opportunities. Instead, the people should understand that opportunities should be created by themselves in close tandem with the government, he said.
While urging the students to lead a ‘truthful life,’ Pfitu asserted that ‘truth is the only way’ and added that truth is the ‘seat’, the ‘chair’ of God’. He therefore encouraged the youths to lead a life based on truth so a prosperous and prospective life.
Meanwhile, in a first of its kind activity, members and leaders of the Changkikong Kaketshir Mungdang held a one-to-one interaction with the chief guest and with the delegates of the CKM delegates.
Leaders of various villages raised a question each to the chief guest on the topic of education.
The chief guest gave a patient hearing to the queries to the questions put up by the participating villages who asked questions about quality of education, the need to revamp the educational system, the problem of educated unemployed, and so on.
