Zeliang Students’ Union Dimapur (ZSUD) organized felicitation program to honor the mertorious students who successfully cleared the HSLC and HSSLC examinations conducted by NBSE and CBSE, at conference hall hotel Saramati, Dimapur.
Addressing the gathering, special guest NBSE Secretary, Rangumbuing Nsarangbe, termed the day as a “monumental achievement” for the students, one they will cherish for life. He underlined the transformative power of education and the pivotal role of youth in shaping society. Nsarangbe acknowledged the indispensable role of parents, teachers, and mentors in the students’ success and advised students to choose careers that align with their interests, abilities, and market relevance.
