In her address, the governor congratulated and appreciated the NCC cadets and suggested to NCC officials that they take the cadets on tours of jails, old age homes and orphanages of the state, so that they may get an idea of the different sections of society and contribute to development. She said “The youth of our country have the capacity to solve problems of the world.”

She also urged the youth in the audience to consider self-employment and become self-reliant, and play a part in helping government schemes reach the beneficiaries.

At the ceremony the Governor awarded six Governor’s Gold and six Silver medals to the selected cadets.
