Imphal, February 18 2016:
The Hmar Students' Association (HSA),
Jiribam unit has urged the State Govt to look into the matter
concerning the upgradation of Jiri College into a full-fledged Govt
college in the interest of the students' community of Jiribam
subdivision.
In a statement, HSA, Jiribam unit declared its support to
the ongoing agitation carried out by various students' bodies
of Jiribam in this regard.
It also expressed readiness to extend
cooperation in any manner towards the realisation of the de-
mand.
HSA said that the upgradation of Jiri College into a full-
fledged college will greatly help in shaping the economy of the
people of the region by cutting the cost of education which
otherwise drains the parents' hard earned income by way of
sending their children to the neighbouring States for higher
education.
It further lauded the efforts of various students' unions in
bringing forward the plight of students of Jiribam.
