He was joined by Chow Zingnu Namchoom, MLA of the 47-Namsai Constituency and Advisor for Rural Works, Sports & Youth Affairs; CR Khampa, Deputy Commissioner of Namsai District; senior officials from various departments, and members of the public.

The ceremony commenced with a ceremonial ribbon-cutting and the unveiling of the inaugural plaque, followed by a detailed inspection of the newly completed staff quarters. Er Mosum Sema, Executive Engineer of the Urban Development, Namsai Division, delivered the welcome address. She presented a comprehensive project briefing and extended gratitude to the Government of Arunachal Pradesh for entrusting the department with the responsibility of executing such a vital project. She noted that this project was part of a broader effort under the Golden Jubilee Model School Scheme, which also covers schools at Adi Ningroo and Kumari, Lekang.

Addressing the gathering, Deputy Chief Minister Chowna Mein lauded the ongoing developmental strides in Namsai district, with notable improvements in road infrastructure, hydroelectric power projects, tourism development, and air connectivity. He called upon the youth of Namsai to move beyond the pursuit of government jobs and to explore entrepreneurial opportunities, particularly in the burgeoning tourism sector, where the district holds tremendous untapped potential.

In a forward-looking gesture, Mein requested the Deputy Commissioner to organize workshops for the youth to showcase their talents in local handicrafts, and to create mechanisms to support startups and young entrepreneurs. He also proposed identifying old SPT government buildings for dismantling, advocating for the construction of vertically extended quarters as a space-optimizing solution.
