KOHIMA, Nagaland: To promote the spread of education in order to ensure their better future, the Assam Rifles has established an ‘MVC Centre of Excellence & Wellness’ to honour Capt (Late) N Kenguruse at Chieswema Village in Kohima.
The centre was inaugurated by the Lt Gen P C Nair, Director General Assam Rifles (DGAR) on Monday, August 8. The project has been accorded the status of a year-long residential coaching and mentoring service for kids coming from economically backward sections of Nagaland for competitive examinations like NEET and JEE.
The newly established MVC Centre of Excellence aims to provide value-based education with the help of soft skills like leadership, personal conditioning, personality and wellness programmes. A total of 30 students have been selected from the remote areas of the state to study at the centre.
While addressing the gathering, Nair said, “Since the AR has been operating in the North East Region for 187 years, it is committed to reaching out to remote communities with limited access to development, education, and other possibilities.” He added further that similar projects will be launched in the other northeastern states of India, starting from the bordering state of Arunachal Pradesh.
