Mishra (Retd.) at Raj Bhavan, Itanagar today and submitted a memorandum to him on various issues pertaining to the Commission.
The Governor emphasized on women education and health, while underscoring that society will develop and progress, if our girls are healthy and educated. He suggested them for extensive tour of the state to ensure every girl child  of six years age and above goes to school. 
The Governor said that the future of Arunachali society lies on the constitutional bodies like the Women Commission. Therefore, onus is on the members of the Commission to rise to the need and aspirations of every girl child of the state. It also must be vigilant and proactive in addressing any atrocity to any girl or women in the state.
Mishra stressed that the Arunachali woman must be secure at home and outside and be fully empowered to access all their rights and dignity and  given opportunity to contribute in equal measures in all walks of life. He advised the APSCW to explore suitable measures and effective enforcement of laws to secure the safety and rights and entitlements of women in society.
The Governor also suggested to the visiting officials to tour Idu Mishmi areas to attend to their social issues as appropriate. PRO Raj Bhavan
