Two more Universities in AP, and NCERT Textbooks to have Northeast Culture

To boost the higher education system in the state, the Arunachal Pradesh Cabinet has given a go ahead to the proposal of establishment of two new universities in the state.

 

The State Cabinet under Chief Minister Nabam Tuki approved the establishment of Arunoday University at Itanagar and another private university North East Frontier Technical University at Aalo in West Siang district.

 

The Chief Minister also met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and appealed that the culture of northeast states be included in NCERT textbooks. The Central Government has agreed to include the tradition, culture, geographical location and history of northeast states such as Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura in NCERT textbooks.

 

With knowledge of the northeast states, racist attacks on Indians from the northeast living in metropolitan cities across the country are bound to decrease.
