The platform provided through the ANCSU has been the backbone of Naga society, especially in the fields of politics, music, sports, fashion designing and other key areas, Limasunep Jamir IGP (Range) stated on October 19, addressing the 3th day of the inter-collegiate meet organised by the All Nagaland College Students Union (ANCSU) at Sakus Mission College, Dimapur.

Since its inception in the year 1979 when the State was still affiliated to NEHU, the ANCSU has been a torch bearer in promoting the rights and interest of Naga students, he added. “It has come a long way now as more than 40 years have passed.”

Besides, the student body has also played a significant role in tackling social and political issues as well, Jamir noted, adding the ANCSU has been at the forefront of highlighting land encroachment issues in government colleges, need of revamping exam patterns and delay in scholarship disbursement.

Meanwhile, Jamir reminded the students to be on guard against recurring divisions created within the society, adding: “As Christians, we are united by our faith.”

On a side note, he revealed that T John Longkumer, DGP, Nagaland Police, who was invited for the event, could not attend due to personal reasons.
