Manipur surging forward in education
Last week I went to Imphal, Manipur with a Parliamentary Committee of MPs. The Committee went there to review the functioning of some educational institutions and financial institutions. This time, I visited Imphal after many years. I have been pleasantly surprised by the fact that in the Senapati district alone, there is one functioning NIT, one functioning IIIT, an agricultural university, and a huge Central University. In addition, there are various state government-run institutions including another university. Further, there are many private universities all over the state.Some additional notes- It is well-known that Netaji reached up to Moirang in Manipur with his INA soldiers. The state government has beautifully maintained the Netaji memorial at Moirang. There is another beautiful resort at Moirang where people from many parts of India and the world stay for a few days. The G-20 meetings are going to be held at a picturesque location in the Bishnupur district.
The Govindjee temple at Imphal is excellently maintained. It brings peace and tranquility to the mind of the visitor. Kangla Fort is standing majestically with its many known and unknown histories.
The erstwhile kingdom of 'Kangla Sha' has been progressing very fast thanks to the present Central Government and the State Government. The state is definitely having the blessings of Thangal General, Tikendrajit Senapati, Paona Brajabasi, and Yengkhoiba Major.
[Edited- the primary focus should be on the educational aspect and you can incite a discussion on the universities and institutions with more details on them. We are allowing the additional info. of tourist attractions this once as extra notes. References to liquor and other things are not acceptable.]
