Interacting with the students of Oriental College, the outspoken and young entrepreneur said that Nagas have been spoilt with the creation of Nagaland as a state in India as everyone was after an easy life of getting government job in one way or another. He opined that the mentality of the young Nagas should come out of this cocoon as everyone was not entitled nor programmed to become a government job holder. Challenging the gathering, he said life is not all about the money and resources at hand but rather the will of an individual to overturn the scenario in their favour through hard work. He also emphasized on the syllabus of the current Indian scenario by stating that the present Indian education system does not encourage young people to unlearn what they have learnt to accommodate and adjust with the demands of the world. Avowing his support for the young students in their endeavour towards making a contribution to the society, he asked them to be wary of the present trend and plan accordingly as everyone was not destined to be a government employee. He further congratulated the college for introducing and starting the life skill program for the students in order to prepare them with the basic life skills in their formative years and thus enabling them to think and prepare for their future.
