Speaking at the occasion, Jacintha Lazarus encouraged the students to work hard.

She said, "You have proved your mettle in the recently held District Level Literary Meet wherein your school was adjudged the best performing school defeating other urban schools" .
The DC while mentioning the responsibilities of teachers and parents urged the villagers to send their children to school.

She checked the midday meal documents, attendance registers of the PHC and Government schools.
Interestingly, the DC was impressed with the functioning of the Government High School at Oinam hill village which is managed by Village Board and Headmaster.
She also inspected the MGNREGS works implemented in these villages.
