HARVESTING HOPE | HOW ONE FARMER IS LEADING BY EXAMPLE
■ Staff Reporter ■ Longlung ■ July 25
In a time when government employment is often seen as the sole benchmark of success among youth, one man from Longlung village is redefining the narrative. Dangcha Lungku has emerged as a symbol of self-reliance, proving that dignity and purpose can be cultivated through hard work and determination, right from one’s own land.
While many young people wrestle with unemployment, frustration, and in some tragic cases, fall into the trap of substance abuse, Dangcha took a different path. He turned to vegetable farming, not just as a means of livelihood but as a mission of self-sufficiency.
Today, his thriving farm is a testament to what is possible when perseverance meets purpose. His journey stands as both an inspiration and a challenge to the youth: to look beyond the conventional, to take ownership of their future, and to create employment rather than seek it.
Dangcha Lungku’s story is more than a personal success; it is a powerful call to action, that real progress lies in doing, not in waiting.

ABSENT OFFICERS HINDER DEVELOPMENT IN MANMAO, CLAIMS LOCAL RESIDENT
■ Staff Reporter ■ Manmao ■ July 22
A concerned resident of Manmao has raised a serious issue regarding the prolonged absence of government officers from their designated stations, claiming it is one of the major obstacles to the town's development.
According to the resident, most departmental employees are operating their offices remotely from Jairampur or even Itanagar, rather than residing and working in Manmao. This has led to a growing sense of neglect and frustration among the local populace, who believe that the effectiveness of government services has been severely compromised.
"How can we expect progress when officers are not even present in the town? Their absence stalls every aspect of local governance," the resident remarked.
The citizen emphasized that the presence of officers in their respective stations is fundamental to any developmental initiative and urged the local leadership to take this matter seriously.
