The DC Dimapur complimented few schools who had performed fairly well and impressed upon the poor performing schools to pull up their socks and do their home work properly in the coming years. Reminding that the best paid government employees are the teachers, Kevin urged upon them to perform their duties with a missionary zeal as it concerns the future of the younger generation. Stating that they are fortunate ones to be posted in Dimapur, he cautioned them not to take things for granted but to do justice in their assigned tasks. “If you can make one soul a responsible person, that is the greatest missionary work,” Kevin said adding “You have a bigger role, don’t take as a duty but take it as a commitment and responsibility.” Kevin also asked them to follow the protocols and procedures of government set-up while discharging their official works. In the meeting all the government institutional heads in Dimapur district presented reports of their school performance. Some of them highlighted on the problems faced by the schools such as poor infrastructure, inadequate classrooms, shortage of manpower and rampant upgradation of schools without proper assessment of existing infrastructures. The DC directed them to give the complaints in written through the DEO and assured them to look into the genuine issues. DEO Dimapur, Amongla, also encouraged the gathering to be self disciplined in order to get better results. She thanked the DC for showing his concern for the welfare of the students community.
