Speaking on the occasion, Agriculture Minister Th Biswajit Singh commended the establishment of a private agriculture institute in the State.
Pointing out the small number of seats in Government agricultural institute, he shared that 20 seats are available at PDDUIAS for students nominated by the Government under different categories.
Former Minister Thounaojam Chaoba also spoke on the occasion and highlighted the importance of 'food' to people all over the world.
Seeing the dearth of agricultural colleges in the State, PDDUIAS was established in Manipur by borrowing the name of notable leader Pandit Deen Dayal, he said. Adding that the institute is operated by Utlou Co-operative Society, he informed that more facilities will be made available at PDDUIAS under the New Education Policy.
As a part of the event, appreciation certificates were distributed to six staff of the institute including the Deputy Director and Assistant Director.
Aside from this, the Agriculture Minister also released a book titled "Effect of Weather Parameters on Growth and Yield of Black-Scented and Aromatic Rice Cutivars of Manipur" authored by Associate Professor Hanglem Ionebala Devi during the event.
