Dimapur : The 34th general conference of Western Sumi Students’ Union (WSSU) got underway this morning at Toluvi village, with Azheto Zhimomi, MLA, 3 Dimapur-III A/C, as chief guest at the inaugural session.

Addressing the students, representing 10 constituent units of the WSSU, Zhimomi pointed out the need for society to press forward to prosper in all aspects of life through retrospection as to where the people are lagging behind.

The chief guest also cautioned the students not become victims of greed but to know and understand the hardships faced by their parents.

He called on them to make good of the things that God has bestowed upon the people and to make the society a better place to live in.

The MLA also urged the students not to politicise the student body and urged that proper speaking and usage of one’s own dialect be encouraged among the young members of the community.

He donated Rs.50,000 each to the WSSU and local students’ union of the host village, Rs.25,000 to the hosts, the Highway Area Sumi Students’ Union (HASSU), and Rs.5,000 each to all participating units.

MLA Azheto was accompanied by his wife, DMC members Tovihito Ayemi and Vikheho Zhimo, and a host of Congress party workers of Dimapur-III A/C, at the session chaired by Hukugha Tuccu, HASSU president.

The evening session, chaired by Mughato Chophy, former president of WSSU, had G Aketo Sema, IPS, as the speaker. Sema spoke about “enduring with our roots”. Students of Toluvi, the host village, presented folk dance during the inaugural session, while various cultural and games competitions were conducted during the day.
