During the foundation day celebration held today at Neikanlong Imphal, the founder president Ajon Gonmei who served the NCYO for the 40 years (1979-2019) exhorted that the sports movement in the hill areas of the State can be more successful if the Government cared to support the youth and sport lovers in the hill districts.
NCYO, Khoupum Sub-Division has been organizing annual tournaments regularly till date at the voluntary expenses and extra efforts without any financial assistance or official recognition of encouragement, he said while lauding the initiative.
Members present shared the dais with strict adherence of Covid-19 SOP and many participants presented cultural songs and gave speeches on the sport activities undertaken in the Ruby jubilee celebration of NCYO which was held at Lubanglong Khoupum Valley in Noney district last year, said a statement of NCYO.
Speakers on the occasion lamented the absence of proper road connectivity and infrastructures like play fields and other sport complexes in the Nungnang Circle which often rendered hardship for the sports lovers, it said.
