Imphal, Nov 9 (UNI): Chief Minister N. Biren Singh on Tuesday launched face-to-face classes under Chief Minister’s Civil Services Coaching Scheme (CMCS) 2021-22 at the State Academy of Training, Takyelpat.
Mr Biren said that as the State has witnessed significant improvement in COVID-19 situation,
normal classes in schools and colleges for Class IX and above would commence soon.
He however, said that opening of schools for junior classes would delay some more time as
there is need for further assessment.
The Chief Minister stated that commencement of physical Civil Service coaching would enable hundreds of aspirants to have the same coaching as in Delhi or other cities here. Now, they need not travel to other cities spending huge amounts of money as the coaching is available in the State free of cost under this initiative of the State Government, he pointed out.
Stating that it has been his long-time dream to introduce quality Civil Service coaching for the students of the State free of cost, Mr Biren Singh Singh expressed his heartfelt appreciation to
ALS IAS Academy and its officials for making it possible.
The Chief Minister said that youths of the State do not lack in talent and knowledge but they earlier
do not have adequate opportunity and proper guidance.
Ever since the new State Government was sworn in, it started applying mind to tap and groom
these talents, and started working in that line accordingly, he added.
The Chief Minister also exhorted the aspirants present at the function not to get disheartened due
to uncertainties in life.
He stated that life as well as politics has so many uncertainties, however one should continue
working hard to achieve what they wish and do something for the Nation and the State.
He also advised the students to have discipline in whatever they endeavour, stating that discipline
is the foundation of success.
Education Minister S. Rajen Singh said that apart from infrastructure development works, the
present Government had done many unique things that the past Governments did not do.
The State Government is equally concentrating on developing the future of the youth as there is
no point in having good infrastructures if there is no future for the youth, he observed.
S. Rajen also thanked Chief Minister for conceptualising the IAS Coaching scheme with the sanctioning of Rs. 2.80 crore from the State Planning Department.
The Minister said that Civil Service coaching would be conducted at the State Academy of
Training, Takyelpat for the time being.
However, it would be conducted soon in a permanent campus having quarters for faculties and
staff and hostels for students at Taothong in Imphal West district. Land for the construction of the complex had already been identified, he added.
