Kheloshe Polytechnic Atoizu (KPA) the oldest polytechnic in Nagaland is all set to commemorate 50 years jubilee in a short while, but sadly the first polytechnic institute of the state still falls short of providing degree level certificate. It’s been a decade long since the issue was taken in the cabinet level & approval passed thereon, but hitherto no steps have been set off or initiated. The land owners has already played their part by offering free land with special respect to upgradation and the stake holders are ready for any clarion call from the department if need arises. Basically there is no degree institue for civil engineering in Nagaland and one such is the need of an hour. Indigenous Students go outside for higher studies after completing their diplomas while going through many procedures, financial problems and countless sufferings. It is a dream of every engineering students & parents to have our very own degree institute, so that pursuing degree course will be easier akin to other fields of studies. KPA which was established in 1970 qualifies all criteria and has credentials to be upgraded, even the infrastructures should not be the reason in doing so, it can be the second option, having said that it should not be taken as an exception to prioritizing infrastructures. The Emlo-To Students’ Union would be pleased to help, assist and trouble shoot any problems if the government/department or the concern authority is willing to share the grounds and basis for rejecting the progression on various occassion in P&R. The tireless effort of Er. Picto shohe parliamentary Secretary, Justice & Law and SIRD in trying to make the aspiration of thousand students a reality is commendable & praiseworthy, Likewise the endeavor of all likeminded individuals & authority is appreciated. Its high time now for the hon’ble Chief Minister, Hon’ble Minister for Technical & Higher Education, Chief Secreatary and all concerned to appraise the subject in question and address the issue with all sincerity and solve the problem once and for all.
