ITANAGAR: The month-long skill development training workshop organized by the Longding District Battalion of Assam Rifles and District Industries Department (DID) under the Assam Rifles Sadbhavana programme 2022-23 concluded on Tuesday.
The Longding district Battalion of Assam Rifles took a noble initiative to empower a dozen unemployed youth of the Wancho region in different skill sets. The idea was to encourage them to work hard and earn an honest living and wean them away from the insurgent agenda. The battalion systematically screened and identified 12 unemployed youths for imparting skill training based on their aptitude and inclination in conjunction with DID. Commandant of Battalion (AR), Col. K S Gill felicitated the participants with a Proficiency Certificate (PC) for successful completion of skill training. Speaking at the closing ceremony, he exhorted the attendees to exploit their newly acquired skills to earn an honest living. He assured them of continued assistance in their pursuits to live an honorable life.
