Education and health are the basis of any socio economic development and the government has left no stones unturned to improve the sectors in the state he said.
Speaking on the government’s decision to open the educational institution at Baksapara, Sangma stated that there was an urgent need to reverse the trend of migration of the youth in search of higher education to urban settlement. Educational institutions need not be clustered in urban settlements such as the state capital but evenly distributed throughout the districts so that the youth are ensured equal opportunities to pursue higher studies Sangma stated.
