He encouraged them to actively contribute to society, safeguard the environment, and work towards the overall development of the state. ​

I appreciate the Governor's balanced approach. Development is important, but so is preserving our unique cultures and environment. The youth of Arunachal can lead the way in showing how progress and tradition can go hand in hand.

Good to see focus on border area youth. They face unique challenges and opportunities. Hope such interactions lead to more concrete opportunities for them in education and employment, not just speeches. The spirit is there, they need the tools.

As someone who has visited Tawang, the people there have immense pride in their land and country. Encouraging civic engagement and cleanliness is so practical. Small steps in community building are the foundation of a strong nation.

The 'World beyond Classroom' tour sounds like an excellent initiative. Real learning happens outside textbooks. When youth from remote areas see governance and leadership up close, it inspires them to be part of the solution. More power to them!

While the message is positive, I hope it translates into action. Often, youth in the Northeast feel disconnected from the "mainland". 'Nation First' must be a two-way street – the nation must also put its border citizens first with equal opportunities and attention.
