The Mizoram Governor emphasized the critical role of education, advocating for the creation of engaging and conducive learning environments to enable Mizo students to excel in competitive national examinations. He commended the substantial number of beneficiaries under the PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme in Champhai District and urged the establishment of additional Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) while promoting organic vegetable cultivation. He further highlighted the importance of optimizing key schemes, including rooftop solar projects, waste management, food processing and health programmes such as Ayushman Card, Jan Aushadhi, and Health & Wellness Centres. He stressed the provision of nutritious food in schools and Anganwadis to support child welfare. Addressing the growing impact of natural calamities, he advocated for robust preparedness measures and emphasized the need for inter-departmental collaboration to drive developmental initiatives effectively.
During the meeting, Deputy Commissioner Pu Mohammad Aaquib extended a formal welcome and outlined the challenges faced by Champhai District due to recent heavy rainfall, along with the ongoing efforts to address them. He reported that 4,653 refugees from Myanmar have sought shelter in Champhai District due to recent conflicts.
