SINGTAM, 02 March: Ganga Mukhia and Karma Gyurmi Bhutia from Singtam and Pandam respectively are among the two dozen SDF youth workers who have been visiting schools and organizations in the area to generate awareness against socials ills plaguing the society.
Two youth had visited Singtam Senior Secondary School and Khamdong Senior Secondary School last Saturday and interacted with the teachers and students there and later also visited the Khamdong Block Administrative Centre.  On Sunday, they participated in the 31st Basibiyalo, a literary meet, at the Singtam Community Hall and spoke on the issues being pursued by them.
On their experience thus far, Ganga Mukhia said, “It was nice to receive wonderful feedback from the students and teachers of Singtam SSS and Khamdong SSS. The students took active part in the interactive sessions and we discussed different topics ranging from HIV/ AIDS to substance abuse and the role of youth in the making of a better society”.
Karma Gyurmi Bhutia added that the SDF youth were working at the grassroots level to generate awareness and inspire involvement of the society at large in tackling social ills. They stressed that this was in pursuance of the Chief Minister’s vision to empower the youth with awareness, involvement and a strong sense of responsibility.
