Kohima, Aug. 12 (EMN): Mengujuma Students' Union (MSU) on Thursday organised its annual felicitation programme for students who excelled in academic, at Mengujuma village under Sechu-Zubza circle, about 30 km away from the state capital.
Pelesavi Rürhie, former vice-president of Angami Students' Union, lauded the students for passing their respective board examinations with flying colours, surpassing the previous year’s records.
While advising the students to remain modest, grounded and be a good human, he said they should not mould their talents through competitive exams alone but also by testing their management and planning skills as well.
Highlighting disadvantages of playing mobile phone games, he said "we all are spending more of our time in the digital world" and that "our minds are now controlled by technology and it is ruling our lives- one of them is lack of social interaction”. He added that “addictive video games can have a similar effect as drug abuse or alcoholism”.
Recalling the efforts made by the teachers and parents for their academic success, he asked the students to give their 100% in whatever they undertake and face the challenges in life without discouragement.
Rürhie also expressed his desire to see them as successful alumni who keep the flag of MSU fluttering high.
Successful students were felicitated with mementos and certificates at the event. Medovino Sechü spoke on behalf of the students and by Rokongulie Kuotsu presented MSU's statistical report.
