He congratulated the Organizing Committee for making this International Symposium a reality. He hopes that this program will enable a valuable exchange of knowledge and experience among the participants in the exciting field of Basic Astronomy, and the traditional knowledge of Astronomy according to the Mizo people.
He spoke about how Indians have especially been blessed with world-renowned astronomers throughout history, since the time of Aryabhatta. He also expressed appreciation and amazement at learning how the traditional Mizo people also had a deep knowledge of the stars. He urged the Department of Physics, Mizoram University(MZU) and the Mizoram Science Centre to keep up their good work and keep inspiring the younger generation to have a deeper knowledge of the stars and the sky. He also stressed the importance of space science and how it is now the study at which advanced countries are competing.
