Outlining the priorities of the next government, he went on to state that it will be the primary duty of the next government to ensure that the “opaque veil that allows misdeeds” to happen in the state should be removed and ensure transparent system of recruitment at the very beginning of the recruitment.

“The more important aspect is to revamp the education system and to take away from the system the loopholes that have ensured that quality of education stands compromised as it is today,” Lyngdoh said.

According to him, an education system should alleviate and bring out the best in individuals, adding that quality manpower should be ensured in education system.

Stating that the system of favoritism has wrecked  havoc to Meghalaya’s education, he said it is an act of grave injustice to hundreds and thousands who have merit and deserve better.

“It is an established fact that there is no dearth of qualified, capable and sincere teachers,” he said.

He pointed out that as per the figures provided by the Minister in charge of education, he said that it is frightening to know that the number of school drop-outs has gone up to 1 lakhs.
