Imphal, November 28 2015 :
A society or a country can only be developed when all the sections of people in the State are developed together, stated Deputy Chief Minister Gaikhangam on Saturday.
He was speaking at the Educational Convention cum Felicitation organised by Al-Ameen Dr Mumtaz Ahmed Khan Educational and Welfare Trust, Manipur at the Multipurpose Hall of DM College of Science.
Attending the function as Chief Guest, Gaikhangam stated that education is needed to bring development in a society and also to lay the foundation of a bright future.
In a State like Manipur where different communities have been living together, development cannot be brought about only by developing a particular community, stated Gaikhangam and lauded the trust's initiatives to enhance education facilities of Muslim students.
During the function, Education Lifetime Achievement Award 2015 was handed over to Dr Mumtaz Ahmed Khan, Md Subhan Shariff and former Chairman of Manipur State Minority Commission, Halim Choudhury for their contributions in the field of education.
