Kohima: Nagaland’s Higher Education Minister, Temjen Imna Along, underscored the importance of lifelong learning, education, and personal commitment to growth at the 38th Convocation of the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), Kohima Centre.

Speaking to graduates, Along said, “Earning your degree is a remarkable achievement, but it’s only the beginning. You are not just graduates; you are lifelong learners, and your journey doesn’t end with this certificate.”

A total of 914 learners graduated from the IGNOU Kohima Centre, with 210 receiving their degrees, diplomas, and certificates in person during the ceremony.

The minister stressed the need to move beyond the mindset that education concludes with a degree.

“Nagaland boasts one of the highest literacy rates in India, but we must address a more pressing issue—our attitude towards continuous learning,” he said.

He encouraged the graduates to view education as a lifelong endeavour.

“Having a certificate doesn’t mean learning is over. True growth lies in applying knowledge and continuously expanding your skills,” he added.

Along expressed concern over the growing trend of educated individuals avoiding hard work and failing to contribute meaningfully to their families and communities.

“We cannot expect success without effort. Many educated individuals are part of unions and societies but lack clarity about the issues they are fighting for. Our actions must have purpose and aim for the greater good,” he emphasised.

Highlighting the importance of unity and collective progress, Along said Nagaland’s strength lies in its people’s ability to rise above tribal divisions and work together.

“Our true culture is about unity, resilience, and cooperation. Let us focus on building a prosperous future, free of conflict and division,” he stated.

He also urged graduates to contribute to the state’s development, particularly through excellence in entrepreneurship and other fields that benefit the community.

“Nagaland has immense potential. With educated minds like yours, we can transform this state into an asset for the nation. It’s time to unlearn harmful practices and focus on acquiring the right skills for progress,” he remarked.

Concluding his address, Along expressed gratitude to the central government for establishing the IGNOU centre in Nagaland in 2000. He acknowledged the institution’s vital role in providing higher education opportunities to the region.
