THENZAWL: Union Minister for Agriculture & Farmers’ Welfare Shivraj Singh Chauhan virtually inaugurated the newly constructed Academic cum Administrative building of the College of Horticulture, Thenzawl, and the new PG girls hostel at the College of Veterinary Sciences & Animal Husbandry, Selesih, via video conference. Mizoram Governor Gen. Dr. VK Singh joined the event online from his office, while Mizoram Chief Minister Lalduhoma attended the ceremony in person as the guest of honour at Thenzawl.

In his remarks, the Union Minister stated that Mizoram is a beautiful and geographically significant state, home to diverse communities. He highlighted that the state’s fertile land and favourable climatic conditions make it an ideal place for horticulture development, despite the challenges posed by its hilly terrain, deep valleys, and the difficulty of large-scale farming due to limited flat land.

Chauhan emphasized that these two colleges would continue to significantly benefit farmers and contribute to further development in Mizoram. He also noted that the central government remains committed to the welfare of farmers and agricultural workers in Mizoram, which is reflected in these initiatives. “I will also talk to students and sons and daughters. Mizoram is a wonderful state. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has resolved to take the Northeast forward. For a developed India, a developed Mizoram is necessary, and for a developed Mizoram, developed agriculture and prosperous farmers are necessary,” the Union Minister said. (ANI)
