In the heart of the capital, a landmark program on harnessing science and technology for tribal empowerment unfolded, drawing high-profile attendees including Vice President C.P. Radhakrishnan. The focus was sharp: leveraging innovation to foster development without compromising cultural integrity.
Deputy CM of Arunachal Pradesh, Chowna Mein, delivered a compelling address. He described Arunachal as a beacon of India’s pluralistic heritage. ‘This land of dawn is extraordinary for its profound culture and spiritual values, beyond its borders,’ he noted. With diverse customs and communities, it exemplifies how unity thrives amid variety.
Mein’s speech painted Arunachal’s tribes as bridges between eras—ancient wisdom meeting modern strides in seamless synergy. ‘Our landscapes and people craft an enduring cultural narrative that motivates us all,’ he affirmed.
He profusely thanked the Science and Technology Department for the invitation, tying the event to the silver jubilee of ITITI Culture School. ‘Kudos to the visionaries and educators who built this legacy,’ Mein applauded. More than a celebration, the gathering underscores India’s resolve to democratize technological benefits across all sections.
Echoing the Vice President’s wisdom, he portrayed tribal groups as vital guardians of national heritage. ‘They enrich our collective identity with their diversity,’ Mein concluded, calling for sustained efforts to integrate tech with tradition for holistic growth.
