Kohima: Governor P B Acharya on wednesday expressed concern over insurgency in Nagaland, which is an obstacle in the way of development.
Inaugurating a seminar on ‘Nagaland: A Way Forward’ organized by the Inspector General of Assam Rifles (North), Acharya said a strong government at the Center is willing to solve the Naga political problem along with the insurgency in the North Eastern Region.
The Centre has Cease-Fire Agreements with three NSCN groups, but how the problem could be solved with so many insurgent groups, he wondered. He appealed to all to come together unitedly to solve the Naga political problem.
On the development front  Acharya said there was lack of initiative from all quarters. He emphasized on the need of ‘3 Es’, Education, Electricity and Employment.
He said Nagaland has over 100 schools, three universities, yet students are going outside the state, even in primary level in the metros.
He said that 38 per cent of the teachers are proxy for which the quality of education was not as per national standard, which compelled the students to go out of state.
Moreover, Nagaland is full of natural resources but there is no subject on the resources available in the state, so that local youth can be benefitted.
On electricity, he said Nagaland has vast scope to produce hydro power and use of solar energy to produce power. Without power no industry can survive and it hampers in study of students. He also said there was lack of work culture.(UNI)
