Committed to improve the primary education in the State and overcome the dropout rate in Arunachal Pradesh, the Governor also requested the Minister for three Navodaya Vidyalayas for the three newly created districts of Shi Yomi, Leparada and Pakke Kessang districts. Javadekar assured the Governor to move the proposal in the next meeting of the Union Cabinet.
In another development, the Governor took up the issue of lone Government Law College of the State, which was scheduled to open last year but could not due to non approval by the Bar Council of India. He spoke to Manan Kumar Mishra, Chairman, Bar Council of India (BCI). Responding to the Governor’s request, the Chairman, BCI, assured the Governor that he would be sending a team from BCI for inspection at the earliest.
The Governor further requested the BCI Chairman to direct the inspecting team to keep him posted of their inspection details after their inspection findings while at Itanagar, so that finalization can be done on time for BCI’s approval for the College.
