Vizo completed the PhD on “Role of Information Communication Technology and citizen centric services on socio-economic development in Nagaland.”

Saying that the options and opportunities available are vast and varied, he opined that “we only need to persevere and be dedicated in our effort to consistently work and not tire when hurdles come our way”.

Information technology has revolutionized the world while it is not different in Nagaland, and in years to come it will only progress, he said.
