The chief minister was the chief guest while Law Minister, Ampareen Lyngdoh the guest of honour at the programme held at the state convention centre.
Sangma added that human rights is one of the most important talks since human rights are what recognizes and protect the dignity of human beings and also because there are varied views on human rights based on individuals, groups or organisations.
He also stated that the one driving force in his life that motivates him is to make a positive change in a person’s life.
“I think as politicians, officers or as members of the society we are living in is to strive to make a positive difference in a person’s life in whatever way we can and I believe that this is related to human rights because everyone is a human being,” he said.
He also said that the theme ‘Freedom, Equality and Justice for All’ is a compelling theme addressing the aspirations of many and also will address the insecurities and conflicts among groups and individuals.
