Imphal, June 20 2015 :
A three-day long Edu Fair cum Counselling Session began today at DM College Multipurpose Hall.
Altogether, 35 institutions verified by the Department of Higher and Technical Education, Manipur from different parts of the country, registered participation in the fair.
The formal opening function of the session was attended by Commissioner of Higher and Technical Education P Vaiphei, Director of Education (U) C Arthur and Additional Director RK Yaiskul.
Speaking at the function, P Vaiphei stated that the counselling session is a bit late this year but the Department will conduct such fair early next year.
He added that such fair cum counselling session has provided a platform for students and parents to know what all the educational institutions are providing.
Stating that academic education here in the State is very much disturbed by frequent economic blockade, bandh, general strikes even from student organisations, P Vaiphei said that it is best for students to look beyond Manipur for further studies.
In the interest of the students of Manipur and genuine institutions who are approved and recognized by the UGC, AICTE and other Government agencies, the Department will conduct such educational fair and counselling sessions in future, he added.
The Edu Fair is scheduled to conclude on June 22 .
