Pradyot Kishore Debbarma also emphasized the collective responsibility of the community to nurture and empower the younger generation for leadership roles in the state.

Now the next challenge is that this must also be a norm for our students and candidates in UPSC and all other competitive exams. All of us should ensure that in the coming years we get better officers from the younger generation in the right position,” he posted on X.
