Youth is the deciding factor and their role in the society is very crucial and large.
The youths should be careful while casting their votes. They should know when, where and whom to vote to use their franchise right, she said.
In this era of internet one should make the decision by thinking carefully but not by emotion.
We will have a peaceful coexistence and integrity in our state if we can presume that we are the sons of one mother, she continued.
The participation in the camp and representing different cultures indicates that there is still a strong understanding among all the communities of the state. We should never encourage the politician who has the concern for only a section of the community, she added.
Giving her presidential address Zonal Director of NYKS Manipur Zone, Imphal Jackie Ruivah said communities in the state have been bonded closely since time immemorial and are inseparable.
One should know one’s culture and should respect others’ culture. The camp was enjoyed irrespective of religion, caste and creed, she continued.
