K. Tokugha Sukhalu, IAS (Retd.), MLA and Advisor for Food and Civil Supplies, Legal Metrology and Consumer Protection, and Chairman of the Urban Local Bodies and Village Council Committee, Government of Nagaland, visited Government Higher Secondary School (GHSS), Zunheboto, on March 20. He was accompanied by NPF 35 Zunheboto AC party workers to express his concern for the progress and development of the school.

During his visit, Sukhalu addressed the students during the morning assembly, drawing from his own early education at the same institution. He noted that the school has produced many bureaucrats and technocrats and encouraged the students to study hard and pursue their goals. “If they can do it, why can’t you?” he remarked.

He urged students to give importance to education and to respect and honour their mentors, who play a vital role in guiding and shaping their future. He also advised students to clarify their doubts with teachers rather than relying on equally confused peers, and emphasized the importance of cultivating punctuality in their academic lives.

Following the assembly, the Advisor held a brief meeting with the faculty, led by the Vice Principal, during which various grievances were shared. Sukhalu encouraged the teaching staff to remain sincere and dedicated in their service to the younger generation. No matter what the politicians, bureaucrats and technocrats do, teachers are the people who will build students’ futures and not us, he concluded.
