Dimapur, April 14 (EMN): Nagaland Governor RN Ravi held a sensitisation-cum-consultation meeting with all the tribal hoho leaders of the state at Dr. Imkongliba Hall, Raj Bhavan on Wednesday in view of the second wave of Covid-19 in the country.

An update from Raj Bhavan informed that the governor recalled the significant contributions of the tribal leaders and their co-operation with the state government in combating the first wave of Covid-19.

“The suggestions will be conveyed to the state government for necessary action,” read the press release, adding that ‘the governor will meet GBs, Church leaders and leaders of other faith-based organisations in the state in coming days’.
