MAWKYRWAT: Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma stressed the need for special care of certain areas of the state even as he said the education sector is a top priority of the present government.
Speaking on the occasion of the Golden Jubilee celebration of Sngimawlein government Upper Primary School in Mawkyrwat on Thursday, the chief minister expressed happiness and satisfaction that the school is moving in the right direction which has been possible only through the hard work and dedication of the founding members of the school and various personalities which have helped elevate the school to its present status.
The school founded by teachers (L) Shri. Srallington Lyngdoh, (L) Wollendro Lyngdoh and (L) Dani Lyngdoh in 1968, annexed a new building constructed under the Rashtriya Madyamik Shiksha Abhiyan.

The government is working tirelessly to ensure that the right policy comes out.
“ The education policy will be framed soon and it will give a new direction on how we should move ahead in terms of education sector in our state’. The policy will give guidelines and allow us to move forward in a way so that the education sector grows stronger and stronger as we move forward”, the chief minister added.
