Stating that the education sector has been facing huge challenges for the past 40-50 years, Sangma said, “We have the highest number of schools, teachers compared to other states in the country. We have the highest number of categories of teachers. However, we don’t have enough infrastructure, enough institutions but under the dynamic leadership of the chief minister, we have started a lot of transformation. In the last five years of MDA government under the leadership of CM, we have constructed new buildings for the colleges, for the secondary schools, for the primary schools and other professional institutions be it polytechnics, be it ITIs also.”
