Mathematics is being made a compulsory subject at the Pre-University level under the North-Eastern Hill University.

This was stated by the Vice-Chancellor, Dr B D Sharma, while addressing a two-day regional conference on `Mathematics & Mathematics Education” organized by the NEHU’s Maths Department here on July 10. Dr Sharma called for the involvement of the best brains in the country in building up the foundation of science and mathematics in the region.

Mr Oris Lyngdoh, Meghalaya’s Agriculture Minister who was the chief guest at the conference, advocated the need for tracing the reasons why the students of the North-East were shy of taking mathematics. He said that all out efforts should be made to banish the psychological hang up about mathematics among the students of the region.
