During the event, Yhome emphasised that, in tandem with global changes, the Nagas are currently excelling in various fields, competing both nationally and internationally, and achieving significant milestones, according to a press release.
He expressed his hope that the school will produce outstanding individuals who will contribute to the progress of the people and the state over the next fifty years.
