Appreciating the role of ex-students of the schools in organising the foundation day every year, Khandu said this is how one should contribute back to their schools. It is not possible for one to turn back on their homes, said the CM equating the school to a home.
He assured the students that Manjushree is one of the best performing school in the district to which all of us are proud of. This is a school where students from all over Arunachal who need care and support for their education are admitted, said CM. Assuring full support from the state govt for the school, Khandu promised for a corpus fund in the coming financial years.
