Citing the example of Lieutenant General Rana Pratap Kalita, the current General Officer Commanding-In-Chief of the Indian Army's Eastern Command, and an alumnus of Sainik School Goalpara, CM Sarma said, "The educational institution's current crop of students should also work hard so that they too can get admitted to National Defence Academy and Indian Military Academy."
He appealed to the students to never compromise with their aims and ambitions and remain committed towards fulfilling them, irrespective of the hurdles that might come their way.
The Chief Minister assured of a 5-year roadmap for the school so that it can be transformed into one of the top-10 educational institutions in the country.
