He also viewed that students’ unions of the state in any parts of the country should provide counseling for newcomers, so as to guide them for a better future.
He also advised students to uphold the identity of the state with pride when they go to other states, and not to indulge in any activities that can tarnish the image of Arunachal Pradesh and North East region.
“We have heard many negative remarks about the way the youths from the North East region are living in other states, therefore it is important for the parents to visit their children once,” he added.
