He also urged the student leaders to chalk out a strategy to bring more development in the field of education in the two hill districts.

“The KAAC is 60 years old but no sign of development can be seen in the field of education. Therefore, the student leaders have to take the responsibility to promote work culture instead of bandh culture in the district. The two hill districts are still lagging behind in all spheres because illiteracy. We need to be prioritized as acquiring higher and quality education is most important,” said Dr Momin.
